REALaltMiddle 33% Positivity rate. Yeah. Open schools.

Many were false positives, but go ahead and push Fake News.

Nobody can control nature. Let it roll

A big percentage of tested positive

Give it a break!

Over 27,000 tests done in Ontario yesterday and only 0.4% were positive. wearadamnmask stayhome masks

DeSantisFailedFlorida

What I don’t understand is how they’re getting test results back in less than 24 hours? I had to wait 6 days last week to get results.

maga

Yet deaths steadily decline. Let’s talk about the real story: NY and Michigan governors murdering seniors. Do democrats hate old people?

JUST SAY NO

If you feel good are you going to get a test?

Very scary

Health people for the most part are not going on for test?

How many they tested might be a important piece of information.

Can they build some new hospitals in 2 weeks?

Now do California.

And this moron Ron DeSantis wants to open up schools in less than 4 weeks..Unbelievable!

Welcome to Miami

Thanks to donald trump ramping up testing we are finding out how many have it and that its no worse than the flu.

The United States is under international lockdown. No one wants Americans in their countries! The States lead the world by far with over 3.2 million COVID-19 cases and over 136,000 Covid deaths. That’s 1/4 of the total COVID 19 deaths in the world! Winning!! All on you, tRump!

Good for Florida. They were warned and still bucked the science and ignored the medical professionals. No sympathy here.

That means it has been here for a year or so.

You know, that's a good thing, this continues to push down the mortality rates. Maybe you should have added that part of your tweet, but I guess that doesn't help push the fear.

I guess I can say bye to my timeshare

Well done Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boring lies!

If you consider Miami-Dade population, that could be in excess of 300,000 infected. If you consider the population of Florida, that could be in excess of 7 million infected.

Maybe they should have more protests there to rail against the injustice.

'asymptomatic infections may account for as much as 45 percent of all COVID-19 cases'. we have more silent spreaders. more testing=more cases, more surges. protect urself, dont listen to fake news. listen to the facts. facts dont lie.

Almost everyone will get some form of this virus and most will never know they had it.

Thats not suspiciously high 🤔

SAVE THE CHILDREN IN THE MEANTIME

Be very careful as maybe DeSantis is trying to get herd immunity this means 65% to 68% of the population He only need another 32/3 % more and he has achieved the dream of every epidemiologists.The only problem is that the 32% left no contaminated can’t get out or they’ll die

All the states and cities where there was protest and riots. Ha ha ha ha

So 900,000 cases in Miami-Dade alone. Population 2.7 million. The Hospitalization rate must be fairly low.

Why hasn't this virus subsided in the heat & humidity of summer as most viruses do? Heaven help us come this fall and winter

Close schools. Priorities should be right. Priority: Now China's mischivous expansionist actions are 1)Take over Nepal after gobling up Tibet 2)Hong Kong,Taiwan and all its neighbours. 3) Bribed WHO 2spread Covid. Nuke China Xi=Hitler

Can be directly linked to protests and riots

1 in 3. And DeSantis did cartwheels, bragging that he beat it over a month ago. Beside Pence. The level of negligence and gaslighting is nauseating. USA needs a bloody revolt with these lying psychopaths imprisoned for not serving their oath of office, killing their own people.

What are the death rates looking like Oh ya there still dropping. So 33.5% increase of people with the Flu

Well generally people get tested when they are sick, dont let them make you think its 33% of the population

America getting immune to Coronavirus!! We will prevail 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

So why should we open the schools

So what’s the new talking point now close business is down again put the nail in the coffin for all small businesses don’t allow parents that both have to work to support their families go back to work let alcohol and drug addictions overwhelm American citizens

Is this good or bad?

Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths Cases does not mean deaths

And it had nothing to do with rioters commuting by bus which thousands of people saw on the highway from city to city town to town protesting

Vice President Pence, Detached from Reality, Says Florida, Texas, and Arizona Covid-19 Outbreaks Are ImprovingDuring a rare Coronavirus Task Force briefing on Wednesday, Vice President Mike Pence tried to suggest that the worst of covid-19 is behind the United States. They are killing Americans. This is the same logic of swimming in shark infested waters with a cut foot, but refusing to believe there are sharks. 'I refuse to believe there are sharks' doesn't mean you won't get eaten by one. The cc for that video is for Venus and the US OPen. 😜
