When we served in Congress together, I assessed that @GovRonDeSantis was a strange guy. I assessed that he did not have good judgement. I assessed that his service was to ambition not his constituents. So, I am not surprised that he is consistently wrong. https://www.tampabay.com/florida-politics/buzz/2020/07/01/ron-desantis-on-fourth-of-july-coronavirus-risk-take-some-small-precautions/

But, he is no longer in a body of 435 where he could do no damage. He was a non entity in Congress. Now, he is Governor of Florida responsible for the health and welfare of over 20 million Floridians. Now he is doing great damage. And statements like this are exhibit A.

He is endangering the life of 20 million people with statements like this. Someone, anyone in his administration, you owe it to Floridians to stop him from making statements that put the lives of those he took an oath to protect at risk. Someone, anyone, do what is right for us.

I don’t think we can just say, ‘We’ll let it spread in the younger people and hope that we can keep the nursing homes safe,' because that has not worked so far,” Lipsitch, a professor of epidemiology at Harvard’s Chan School of Public Health.

In other words, DeSantis is wrong.

Oh, how many times have I misspelled this word. @TwitterSupport an edit function would be so great. Now my husband is telling me that either spelling is acceptable. Still, an edit function would be awesome.
