This idea that "freedom" beats diseases is wishful thinking. Oh well eventually FL will slow down the death-rate which off-the-cuff seems over double the national average from what I see. Get'em DeSantis.
Hold up, are you trying to tell me the oldest and fattest states in the nation are experiencing above average death rates? OMG!!!
Hmm, I may have this wrong but i thought FL had been held up as a shining beacon of how to do all this correctly. Why weren't the old fat people all dying off back then?
Must have missed the part of them being the beacon for doing things correctly. I always see them as the example of lazy covid journalism, take a picture of people at a busy beach and some tweets and there’s a story about people being irresponsible
