Surging in deaths and fearing the worst, Palm Beach County braces for coronavirus onslaught. It even adds an overflow morgue.

Broward County, which has a larger overall population than Palm Beach County, has recorded the second-highest number of deaths in Florida at 47, followed by Miami-Dade County’s 41. Statewide, 254 deaths had been recorded as of Monday, with just over half happening in South Florida.
