MIAMI â With a black mask pulled under his chin, 22-year-old Ace Beck weaved through spring breakers on busy Ocean Drive without any concern for catching COVID-19 â or unwittingly passing it on to somebody else.
The Alabama A&M junior, who spent Thursday afternoon in Miami Beach having fun and flirting with girls, said the big crowds didnât worry him. For one, he said he believed the tropical climate in South Florida would keep the virus at bay. And he didnât expect to run into any medically vulnerable seniors during spring break on South Beach.
âThereâs no way that a girl can cough and I get it, itâs too hot,â Beck said, later adding: âGranny shouldnât be out here anyways. Itâs too many people.â
