Spring breakers continue to party on beaches despite Coronavirus Task Force calling on them to help stop spread of virus.
Storyful
It’s spring break and even a pandemic doesn’t appear to be stopping some people’s plans.
As many Americans continue practicing social distancing to help curb the spread of the new coronavirus, videos and photos of spring breakers in Florida have poured in, showing many undeterred by the threat of COVID-19.
“If I get corona, I get corona. At the end of the day, I’m not going to let it stop me from partying,” spring break goer Brady Sluder told Reuters in Miami.
As of Thursday morning, there are more than 9,000 reported cases of the virus in the United States killing at least 150 people. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advised people earlier this week to avoid gatherings of 10 or more people.
