South Florida spring break visitors not fazed by coronavirus concerns

From South Beach to Fort Lauderdale, beaches full of spring breakers

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. ā€“ Fears over a coronavirus outbreak doesnā€™t seem to be impacting people looking to enjoy spring break in South Florida.

While crowd sizes are expected to grow as more schools arrive at their respective spring breaks, beaches have still been crowded over the past several days.

While many of the beachgoers are younger, there is a healthy mix of middle-aged and older people enjoying the sun and sand as well.

From South Beach to Fort Lauderdale, beaches do not appear to be seeing any dropoff of crowd sizes despite the growing concerns over COVID-19.
