26. DeSantis is doing a muderous disservice to entire country

Jul 2020

By keeping convention, vacation, tourist services open people visit from all over the country. Then disperse to everywhere in the country, bringing the virus to kill us when they come back. I think other states are going to have to set up 3 week quarantines for people coming in from Florida. They are bringing death from Florida, Texas, Arizona.

Deaths rising again Johnny2X2X Jul 2020 #1
Don't worry - 99% of the deaths... dchill Jul 2020 #14

According to the CDC, 54 hospitals here are out of ICU beds already. Pacifist Patriot Jul 2020 #32
Yeah, we are in deep poo-poo. We have a clown leading our state and a mega-clown Blue_true Jul 2020 #42
And if most infected people are young, that would mean young are filling up those ICU beds. LisaL Jul 2020 #38
The point that you made is why this situation is so bad. Blue_true Jul 2020 #40
I actually think we're not going to see any natural wave. Any "waves"... Pacifist Patriot Jul 2020 #31
