Florida Gov. DeSantis says he'll bar any local school district from requiring students to wear masks even as the nation fights a resurgence of coronavirus.

Friday prohibiting school districts in his state from having a choice to set such a mandate.

Before signing the order, the governor told supporters at a Cape Coral restaurant that he and his wife have always opposed masks for their children.

We’re the nation’s epicenter, smashing daily reported cases records! ERs I’ve been in this past week are filling fast with Covid patients! Nursing facility staff are suddenly wearing gowns and face shields again! 180+ reported deaths in a 24 hour period! Positivity of 18.06%

Did I read somewhere that Desantis is actually an educated person? How does he not know his own unknowns? How can’t he wrap his mind around these simple concepts?

Right on! No masks for kids, no masks for adults! Masking constantly is one of the biggest reasons we are all getting SICK! Your immune system needs to work on keeping you healthy with daily doses of germs. AND re-breathing your own CO2 is definable NOT doing your body any good

That is wrong and pigheaded.

Worse Governor ever!

God Bless Ron Dedummy...

Best move ever. Masks are useless. Forcing it is childbl abuse

I’m just confused. He is going to have the blood of children on his hands because of his misinformation and campaign against masks which is PROVEN to prevent spread. What is his goal? Someone needs to stop him.

isn’t this against the values of the Republican Party letting the organization closest to the issue making the rule.

DeSantis's dictatorial mandates are baffling. In fact, they're counter-intuitive. He bans students in Florida from being required to wear masks. This is like banning soldiers from carrying weapons into battle.

Gov. DeSantis has lost his mind trying to cater to his base rather than doing what is right for all of Florida!

How does he sleep at night

DeSantis is absolutely off the rails!

A so called 'resurgence' of a mild variant with the lowest levels of death since the pandemic began. It's over--stop the child abuse, politicizing and fear mongering.

Our governor should be ashamed of himself and the people who believe in him

GovRonDeSantis decisions and motivations are questionable and highly suspect.

FightFakeNews4 he just super attached to that fed covid $ now? that it?

GovRonDeSantis why do you want to kill your base? Confused 🤔

We could bring shark attacks to zero and save lives by banning swimming in the ocean. However, it's a free country, and people ought to make their choices. Edicts over masks and stay-at-home orders need to be made illegal.

Prepare to lose your teachers dummy.

So now the kids in Florida have to avoid guns and covid !! Good goin' DeSantis !! Vote him out...

JuddApatow FUCKtardDeSantis

Then charge him with manslaughter if any school age child dies of Covid.

Florida has 6.38% of the total U.S. population and 20% of daily new Covid cases.

When a Governor Doesn't care about the people he IS SERVING. The Republican way?

When one of those children becomes seriously ill or dies I hope their parents bankrupt him. He should be prosecuted for unnecessarily endangering the lives of children and school staff. WTH !

Such a dippity doo GovRonDeSantis

JuddApatow Gov DeDouche.

Let’s follow Florida’s lead! Said no one ever

Make DeSantis eat every single mask Florida children would have worn on day one of school. Then put another mask on your kids and send them to school, the one trying to murder your children will be too indisposed to punish schools for trying to keep delta out of your families.

Christ Almighty. This is sick.

Does DeSantis have investments in the funeral industry? I can’t wrap my head around this sort of lack of policy. Republicans are simply pro-COVID at this point— there’s no way around it.

Time for criminal endangerment charges. Activily and wantonly preventing people from protecting themselves is a perverse and dangerous act that should be met with the full force of the law. It is akin to knowingly, purposely, and personally infecting people.

DEATH BEFORE CLOTH

Don't let DeSantis pull the coffin lid over your eyes.

Can he be charge with manslaughter if somebody dies? Murder? I mean stupidity isn’t a crime yet

Protect the rights? Who is going to protect the people of Florida from SATAN

Way to go DeathSantis CovidIsNotOver DeathSantis COVIDIDIOTS

Charming.

Florida is now known as New Germ-many🦠 🦠 🦠

Ron DeSantis and his anti-mandate coronavirus strategy as infections soar in the state and nation Infections are not soaring, false positive PCR tests are… Ronnie is a politician, not a leader.

What an exchange. Omg who could have seen this coming
