Doral, where US Southern Command is located, is just under two miles from the President’s golf club. But it is also in Miami-Dade County, which is currently experiencing a coronavirus outbreak. There is always a primary hospital, usually designated by the White House Medical Unit ahead of a trip. They will also install secure communications such that agents traveling on the ground can quickly be in touch with the hospital, where an agent is always in place.Additionally, there are “overflight hospitals” designated ahead of a visit, multiple hospitals where Air Force One could quickly land in the event of a medical emergency on its route.

Trump and government DeSantis our working together. They just want real pretty. They don't care about the lives of the people of Florida I'm from Florida. ICU beds are filling up or are already full.

Hey New Yorkers. Gov. Cuomo placed 6700 Covid patients in nursing homes? It is your family members he killed. He wrote an immunity clause in your 2020 budget bill that lets him off the hook. Is a law that a criminal writes enforceable! Just asking?

Awesome clip that shows highlights of Don Lemon.... What a class act.

What they don't say is that when the COVID number dropped, they took in normal, elective business. Now with a small spike, the beds are already full.

...but it's a hoax

How many icu beds in entire state?

We

GREAT WINNING MURDERER TRUMP!!!

That is how things go really bad. US is rich, took this long to reach this point. Well, ppl,specially magas go ahead without masks, social distance. U will die while u waiting for a hospital bed. I will say told u so.

Shouldn't have listened to DJT

It’s now been about a month. My 24-year-old EMT firefighter nephew is out of the hospital still full of blood clots still receiving constant PT still can’t walk. WearADamnMask

The governors who follow the lead from Trump are the ones responsible for death and destruction… IBlameTrump

Miami, Orlando, Tampa...hmmm, oops. I’m on CNN. Don’t want to go down that road.

Covid Sicilia (italia), un solo nuovo positivo e terapie intensive svuotate. Non si registrano deceduti. Si incrementa di un’unità il numero degli attualmente positivi il cui numero si attesta a 140

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will give a fuck in 2,371,898,037,115,013,643, 2,371,898,037,115,013,642, 2,371,898,037,115,013,641...

It's time for the CDC to release the ethnicity of the newest age group of people who are being hospitalized with Covid-19. Don't wait to tell the public. Tell them.

This is terrible. There are only 67 counties in Florida. So more than half... GovDeSantis blood on your hands.

MY TV CHANNEL FREE YOU

Politics stop the lies you evil 👿 working for China not ghd USA people. Disgrace

Is it possible to ascertain about the demagraphics afflicted withe the VIRUS as Republicans and Democrats or red or blue counties.

Such a smart Governor.

So tired of this ! If you ask the maga in Floriduh they're probably still ok with this s. They won't believe CNN after all men 🤦🏻‍♀️

Not!

Floridians in the cult: 'but they're all in the ICU b/c pneumonia! That's what the 1000% increase in 'pneumonia deaths' in Florida is all about. Not Covid. It's all 'pneumonia'. Low death rate. '

COVIDIOTS: 'Oh, don't worry, deaths aren't going up! It's just the flu! Hysteria! Fear-mongering! Libs working with China! WHO! Antifa! Those *pesky kids* from SCOOBY DOO!'

So why r u giving Trump propagandists a platform again to spread more lies & hurt more people, Rick Santorum today & Scott Jennings last night? If you really cared about the virus you wouldn't put virus promoters on your network but you do.

Had a nice talk with a nursing supervisor. The COVID-19 ward was full. Why is that? New cases? Nope. Asympomatic elderly who can not return to the nursing homes until they test negative 7 days apart. ICU beds? Three occupied as of 2 days ago.

May their Governor finally come to grips with reality.

Florida DOH isn't alerting on positive COVID-19 tests. Tested on July 2nd, told we'd get a phone call if positive. Now July 7th and no phone call. We accessed results directly from the lab; learned on the 4th one of us is positive. Had we waited for a call, he'd still be working

itsLadyYepes But we want to open schools?

This is not true. Complete fake news. previously wrote a similar fake news story about the ICU beds of a Texas hospital, which the hospital later denied.

Why doesn't everyone go to Trumerica where none of this is happening?

Was going to the beach really worth this?

Fake news channel

Fear porn

And now even more people are going to die because Florida insisted against doing exactly the thing doctors and scientists said would avoid this situation.

A more honest version of the story. You just can’t trust cnn.

and this just in Florida.....

Welp...looking at the numbers down in the southern states...I'm not sure this is what they had in mind when the phrase 'The South Will Rise Again' was coined.....hmmmmmmmm

Wear a mask! A sippyMASK...

Sorry, Bob. I know you just had a stroke, but some people couldn't suck up wearing a mask for 20 minutes in the grocery store.

Bla bla bla panic bla bla panic CNN PIECE OF SHIT DONALD TRUMP BEST PRESIDENT EVER WWG1WGA MAGA

If you just slowed the testing down like the President says, we wouldn’t have this problem: people would die at home or on the street.

And he brags about the death rate

Wow. Who knew. Trump and his Mini-me GovRonDeSantis bear the blame completely. I guess 'Liberating' states too early was a bad move. TrumpKnewAndDidNothing early on

How much of that high capacity is due to covid? How many of the covid hospitalizations are life-threatening? How much less fatal *still* is FL overall than, say NYC or NJ? How many states have lost twice as many per capita? Triple? Quadruple? Where is this context?

Why am I not surprised..GovRonDeSantis Governor you think maybe NOW would be a good time to issue a mandate about wearing masks

So Covid or just other causes. You didn’t specify. Prob for a reason. 🙄

Hopefully they don't end up as bad as New York has under Cuomo's reign of terror and war on the elderly.

And DeSantis is in total denial of what’s going on in his state.

🤔 but the prophet Trump said it will magically disappear, nothing but a hoax he said, well done America 🤣 you put a 🤡 in the whitehouse, made yourselves a worldwide joke and a meme country 👍 brilliant!

Fuck Florida all my homies hate florida

America is clueless. 50k new cases a day more than 5 months after this whole thing started. Heads in the sand.

Hospitals have attributed some of the reduced capacity to their return to normal operations, including restarting elective procedures that were put on hold for several weeks.

I heard that Politico did a survey and found no reputable truth telling journalists working at CNN.

So sad 😞

😢😢😢

Ron DeVirus lied to Florida and people are dying because of it.

Stop getting the virus, 5heads

So 'thoughts and prayers' aren't working?

🙊🙈🙉 said everyone in the state of Florida... 👉🏼😷 and being 🧍🏽(6ft apart) 🧍🏽works!!! ✌️

That was why they told you morons to stay at home.

Where’s the contingency plan and field hospitals?

Media propaganda

Hope people in Florida don’t have other illnesses or accidents that require an icu bed! People seem to be forgetting this.

CNN tone it down a little. We still have 4 months ahead. At this pace you'll have to invent Armageddon by the end of next month.

Good grief !

It is ridiculous how the USA has approached CV19 its like they are just ignoring it and hoping for the best.

Being in the UK I'm not going to appear to throw stones but this is horrible news.

And yet Trump is traveling to his failed resort, The Doral (Miami), later this week bring more disease and division.

Anyone know how FL is classifying what are COVID related deaths?

99% of cases are harmless, right ?
