FL, being rump supporters would have never listened anyways. Now that the CV epidemic is in process of pounding the state's residents, perhaps this is the first wave of blaming others now? I fear that this will hammer the state's resources far more than they anticipate. Most of my friends are already hunkered down and have been for some time.

The rest of them were acting like nothing was happening, e.g., beach openings, etc.

Now the bill for their irresponsible actions has come due. They'll be paying the price unfortunately for some time to come I fear.
