Man...

The state reported more Covid-19 cases over the past week than any other seven-day period in the pandemic, according to the latest date from Florida's health department. Published on Friday, the data shows roughly 151,415 new Covid-19 cases were reported over the past week for an average of 21,630 cases each day.
And, if that isn't bad enough. The morons still don't get it.

Unlike last year, when face masks were required, the Brevard School Board voted 3-2 Tuesday night to make masks optional.
WTF?


Let's look at Florida hospitals. Shall we?

More Florida children were hospitalized with COVID-19 on Tuesday than in any other state, reflecting a rapid rise in serious illness among an age group considered to be at the lowest risk of severe outcomes from the disease and many still not eligible for the vaccine.

A total of 46 pediatric patients were admitted to a Florida hospital with a confirmed infection while an additional 22 were hospitalized with a suspected case, according to the federal government’s hospital capacity data.

Only Texas reported a higher total number of pediatric patients ...
Sheesh

In Hillsborough County, where Tampa General Hospital is located, the number of new Covid cases has reached an average of about 1,200 per day, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. That’s more than twice the national rate when adjusting for population.
Good grief.
 
Saw a report this AM that the US now ranks #1 in the world with Covid cases India and Iran are #2 & #3 and within the US LA and FL rank#1 & #2. Great job DeSantis, maybe if you work a little harder you can get FL to #1.

Lol, you think a national emergency is when 22 children get sick? Lol. Stop being silly.

It’s amazing how the left wants people to literally give up The entire political tradition of the country for a harmless disease that kills almost no one.

everyone, pay attention. These are the people Hitler can get to stuff the ovens and turn them on, this insane paranoia and fear over nothing is what drives totalitarian regimes and the people who are willing to carry out any atrocity in their name.

How many children must become infected with COVID before you consider it to be a national emergency?
 
There's no way that I would send my unvaccinated child into a school without a mask mandate. I'm betting a lot of parents won't.
That’s basically saying “I’ll abuse my child by denying them meaningful social interaction based on ascientific fear and paranoia.”

and on top of this masks don’t actually protect anyone. Has your child done medical PPE training?

When it gets to small pox or bubonic plague levels we can talk.

there is no right to 100 percent safety. And the claim there is, is a form of pregenocidal speech.

it is child abuse to teach your children that the air is toxic and their fellow humans are diseased carriers of death.

Tell us about your personal experience in raising children from a parental perspective.
 
"Central Florida’s children’s hospitals report that about 30 are hospitalized with COVID-19, including six in their intensive-care units."
It's 30 today and that is not national it is a State level.

“I’ll abuse my child by denying them meaningful social interaction based on ascientific fear and paranoia.”
That's BS. My 6 year old grandson wears a mask in school or other close indoor settings and he is not the least bit traumatized by it! I think much depends on how their parents discuss the matter with them. It is also something all the kids have to do so no child is being centred out.

For my part, I will always err on the side of caution when it comes to protecting our kids from illnesses and danger as best we can. A vaccine for the young ones can't come quick enough for me.

What is your definition of moron? Believing that cases with no egregious outcomes are a thing or believing that cases equate to massive deaths?

Follow the news Calamity .. as you're lasered focused on cases which mean nothing .. because deaths are at an all time low (although there have been 220K + deaths under Biden). Please .. catch up to reality...
 

because deaths are at an all time low
Yes, and there are many valid reasons for that but I know that listing them for you is a waste of keystrokes. I think that it may be you who needs to do some catching up but maybe try broadening your information sources out from the RW suppliers of carp.

He' working at it and some brain dead Floridians are buying into his BS, the same dregs who bought into Trumps lies. These are the maga people who have become the heart and sole of the Republican Party. That's what DeSantis is after with his shenanigans ..the Trump base in 2024. He has no business being a governor during a pandemic

30 is nothing. I would be nothing if 30 were dead. Yet nearly all of these thirty will survive.

you are merely a leftist who wishes to destroy the entire Anglo political tradition and this hysteria is the mechanism by which it will be done. Or there is an extreme neurosis in how cost benefit analysis is being done, one or the other.

my mother would never have forced such a thing on me, but then again she actually cared about my development.

I’m glad you think your six year old won’t be screwed up at all by not learning human facial expressions or non verbal communication. A double blind experiment of this sort would never be allowed under ethics guidelines but I guess science will benefit from you never thinking about this

We are averaging about 70 intubations a day here in Arizona. This is happening when a vaccine is available.

Hospitalizations and deaths are up now because some people failed to get vaccinated soon enough. This gave the virus time to mutate and send us back to square one. Any other explanation for why we are in our present situation is a crock of shit.

.........and you are not worth interacting with when you talk of other posters in that way. It's been a slice....

What in the hell are you talking about.

None of this is true. The delta variant started in India. If it is here it is because Biden is not banning all immigration from overseas. Not because of blacks and Hispanics not getting the vaccine

Well, the Trump base won't get him the Oval Office in 2024 just like they couldn't do it for Trump himself. Trump had no business being the President during a pandemic and the voters ensured that was put to an unceremonious end. DeSantis should pay attention to what happened to Trump., he is following a bad playbook.

So what? All it takes is 70 a day for you to want to live in a totalitarian dictatorship? Nice to know

Straight out of the mouth of dangerous conservative, 650,000 dead and then we read shit like this, oughta be a law.

Thanks for proving my point. You are not caring about the disease, you want a pretext for a medical fascist dictatorship
