One difference is days. If you are looking at SUNDAY's numbers. This report was published early Sunday morning and contains SATURDAY's numbers (it clearly says Saturday). That's one difference. You are quoting 19,066 cases. That's Florida residents as of Sunday night. The state dashboard also lists 2,342 non-residents that tested positive in Escambia County. 19066+2342 = 21408 total on Sunday in Escambia County.. We reported 21268 total on Saturday (and broke out 2328 non-residents on line 2). It all adds up. “why the numbers differ from what is reported here.”
