One way or another, kids across the country are celebrating their spring breaks.
While many have been canceled due to the coronavirus outbreak and health officials' warnings about spreading the virus, it hasn't stopped the partiers who traveled to Florida. Videos circulating on Twitter confirm spring break is rolling right along -- like this scene over the weekend in Fort Lauderdale.
Kara if you look at our beaches & bars in Fort Lauderdale right now, over the past 2 weeks and going forward our numbers are going to be like S Korea’s except we don’t have the testing to show it for another month. Tens of thousands of spring breakers with YOLO attitudes. pic.twitter.com/3dho8eCM6n

March 16, 2020 According to dailymail.co.uk:
Despite warning signs at the entry of the beach advising against mass gatherings and urging beach goers to practice social distancing the crowds of students continued to pour in throughout Sunday.
In close physical proximity the crowds appeared to disregard the warnings put forward by the CDC.
