Published Jul. 24, 2020
Gary Tibbetts, a longtime staff member for U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, died on Friday from coroanvirus, according to the Congressmans twitter account. He was 66.
Gary was the consummate professional and a true public servant in every sense of the word, Buchanan wrote on Twitter. He touched so many lives and was loved and respected by those who knew him.
Tibbetts died at Manatee Memorial Hospital, where he was being treated for coronavirus since July 15.

(10,177 posts)8. DeSantis is celebrating after he eliminated all precautions employed by other states.
One out of every five Americans with COVID-19 are from Florida, but DeSantis passed a law in Florida prohibiting local governments from being able to enact measures like mask requirements and social distancing to keep people safe.
Nearly 40,000 Floridians have died of COVID and our scumbag governor is selling campaign merchandise on his website saying "Don't Fauci my Florida." As Representative Wasserman Schultz said, "I would rather see us Fauci our Florida than have people go through death by DeSantis."
