ORLANDO, Fla. – Florida isn’t doing too shabby with social distancing, at least, according to this scoreboard.
Uncast developed a “social distancing scoreboard,” which evaluates how every state is following and implementing social distancing in the battle against COVID-19.
The Sunshine State was graded a B for its efforts to keep people away from each other during the coronavirus outbreak. The scores were developed using “human mobility data,” looking at traveled distance for each state, assuming people who are staying home aren’t traveling, and therefore are practicing social distancing.
There are a few other factors and algorithms at play here, so if you’re willing to nerd out you can read more about the methodology here.
