. They’re imposing vaccine and mask requirements for government workers and even declaring states of emergency. In a sign of how worrisome the new Covid-19 surge is, Disney World is ordering all guests over 2-years-old to wear masks indoors at its Florida theme park, regardless of vaccination status.
The current fight mirrors the clash between DeSantis and local officials that consumed Florida during the pandemic last year, but with a new deadly twist: People continue to resist vaccinations even as the highly infectious Delta Covid variant sweeps through America. And with no state-level policy response to the recent infection spike, local government officials are rushing to fill the void., has declared a state of emergency and is requiring the county’s 4,200 nonunion workers to get vaccinated by the end of September. Leon County announced it’s also imposing a vaccine requirement for county workers. Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava mandated masks at all county facilities.
The schools issue has the potential to be the most contentious. Last week, 6,999 children under the age of 12 contracted Covid-19 in Florida, which was nearly 10 percent of the 73,199 new cases across the state last week, according to the Florida Department of Health, which no longer does daily reporting.
DeSantis to party like it's the END OF THE WORLD. who FK ING cares in his States. Hoping all will not follow the rules, no vaccines, no masks, no rules. FLORIDA soon to be a dead zone. Like chernobyl.
Not pro-life, not pro-life at all.
Awesome policy. I will do nothing to stop the spread and I will not support your everts on a county level.
Our hospitals are filling up and Desantis is AWOL, he’s somewhere out west This governor couldn’t lead us out of a paper bag DeSantisShrugged
It's about effing time Floridians stood up to this fascist! FloridaDemocrats
CDC Covid tracker website: Level of Community Transmission is HIGH. Ron DeathSantis likes the color red.
Gov DeSantis . . Many Floridians are watching your incompetence in handling Covid. Don't be so sure of re-election. Unvaccinated constituents are the majority of new infections and death in the state . . And, many of us hold you responsible for the existing trend.
Direct lie. It is only leftwing political activist and politicians. No one else in Florida wants lockdowns , masks, etc. Ppl moved to Fl to escape all that... idiot regime media.
Someone has to stand up for COVID19 spread/numbers in Florida, why not the governor of Florida RonDeSantisFL? Getting the unvaccinated and young people of Florida taken out, what is better for business?
keeps trying to give DeSantis cover. It is SOARING in his state. Period. 20% of cases. And is dragging NATION because of it. DoBetter

Message to Gov. DeSantis, 'a sphincter says what?'
Ronnie is a politician, not a leader. He can handle ribbon cutting but not big time decisions. But, Floridians voted him in and they get the leadership they deserve. He clearly will trade their health and well being for tourist dollars. What an exchange.
Omg who could have seen this coming
Infections are not soaring, false positive PCR tests are…
