Nearly 1 million Americans plan to fly to Florida over Labor Day weekend. An epidemiologist warns they could undo efforts to contain COVID-19 just before schools reopen.
About 12% of Labor Day air travelers are headed to Florida, TripIt said, compared to 4% in 2019. Based on TripIt and previous TSA data, that suggests about 720,000 Americans will fly to Tampa, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Orlando, Fort Myers, Myrtle Beach, Key West, Panama City, and other parts of the Sunshine State.
The idea of so many out-of-staters headed to Florida and other areas fighting the virus raises serious concerns. Epidemiological models have shown that events like university reopenings, which bring 20,000 to 50,000 people together in a new location, can exacerbate a pandemic, Fox said. That suggests any travel influx could do the same.
