You all praise Andrew Cuomo and just the Nursing Hime desths under him are 10% higher then what you are disparaging the entire state of FL.

20k less than NY

As you freak out over that number, remember a guy who died in a motorcycle crash was a COVID death. I’m sure he was the only one listed as one that wasn’t. 🙄

Hydroxycholoquine works. Should be in widespread use.

What’s the flu count?

The people of Florida and the Federal Gov. are more responsible for the deaths than the Virus... terrible way to fix stupid

The total number of Covid 19 deaths in Florida is still lower than the number of New York senior citizens killed in nursing homes & assisted living facilities by NY Democrat Governor, Andrew Cuomo.

Governor Ron DeathSantis

That doesn't sound right and they keep Praising This President God please don't let the People be blinded for ever

So the governor there should write a book on his success mid pandemic ....as it’s like 3x less than NY?

Fake news much ABC?

The narcissistic Nazi known as individual 1 and his co-conspirators around the country are obviously going going to start saying people are lazy because there are plenty of jobs available now that tens of thousands are dead.

Florida has only a fraction of the death toll of NewYork, despite a larger population. Seems GovRonDeSantis should be hailed a hero by and the rest of the mainstream media, while NYGovCuomo should be called out for his leadership failure. KillerCuomo data facts

Awesome job, Ron! Really, really good.

I'm sure you know this GovRonDeSantis but you just don't care!

Scary 😮😮
