Doesn’t make sense ! What about protesters Huh ? What about Hawaii?! Beaches has been opened . Stop fake news!

There are more testing sites open now than before, more people are being tested, yes you will see more cases but the number of new hospital patients remain low

Pretty soon they might reach 10% of New York's numbers

Thank your governor RonDeSantisFL and senator SenRickScott 🤣

auntjody1976 almost like, opening early because your governor is incompetent, was a bad idea

Fuck Florida, call Trump.

What about the protests?

Ah, many of those cases are those damn New Yorkers coming down to their summer homes

I am going to the beach anyway and take my chances.

Thank god floridians can get haircuts!!!

I'm glad that Gov. Roy Cooper held on to his concerns about the RNC Convention in Charlotte. Good luck to those in Jacksonville, FL with the Covid-19 infections going up. Will attendees there also need to sign a waiver like in Tulsa?

Fake news

Are hospitals overrun? No. Then no problem. More testing, more cases. Just like regular flu. Stop testing! Problem solved.

How many due to protests or is being offended the vaccine?

Y las protestas de los antifas no contagio a nadie Me imaginos q los progress y antifas son inmunes ni transmiten q locura de abc

Clearly the best way to respond to this renewed outbreak is to open even more beaches

No shit Sherlock

How many protests were in FL that TheDemocrats urged on? Hmmm...it's been over two weeks since they started and are still happening. WalkAway from TheDemocrats who use co for their political benefit not caring about your health

Heat is proven during the summer to slow the spread of the virus just like the flu

“The sun kills the virus” said all idiots

Smh I want to go the beach bad

But Trump still wants to hold the RNC Convention here?

They should have called their vacations, protests. Don't they know that the virus supports those things? It took a 2-week vacation itself.

Damn it. Use your head. dumbshit besafe COVID19 dangerous coronavirus mondaythoughts

RobElgasABC7 Beaches (and being outdoors generally) are not the problem.

Told y’all dummies who thought this was a hoax

After they have record testing levels and yet hospitalizations are not up don’t you think as a reporting agency that would be an Adam very important point to make to your viewers are you just trying to scare everybody one more time

that's awesome! the more we can get this out there, the less impact it will ever have in the future. especially given that folks will realize how dumb our reaction to it was.

ABC the fear mongers

I'm shocked....shocked to hear this

matthewthornt20 Wear your masks!

These headlines tick me off.....

Do you think anyone Trusts experts or the news after you totally ignored the protests?

Shocking!

98% survival rate let people calculate their own risks

Good

Open up Florida 100%

What did you expect? The real numbers were falsified. More are infected and it was not made public to open up businesses when it was NOT safe. COVID-19 is still here. WearYourMask WearYourMask WearYourMask StayAtHome Floridians

Tell me about the cases that are hospitalized not just those tested

If you’re scared of covid I hope you’re scared of a million other things too because the mortality rate is like zero

What about the states that are protesting, do they have record numbers too?

I literally don’t give a single fuck. Will be there for vacation at end of July.

Record level!?!? I guess some Americans are really embracing Boris Johnson's idea of some of you may live and some of you will die.

Time to close down beaches!

Mask up Florida COVID__19 pandemic WearAMask Follow

Record levels have nothing to do with obtaining Vitamin D outdoors, which they have bee reporting to help protect you from COVID.... it’s all about the riots and protests. lies

US will get back to work 👇👇

Fake news

Here is how to get the numbers up! Do more tests!

More testing = more cases...

Nobody believes your BS anymore!

Thanks to the pathetic corrupt governor!!!

Why don't you use a picture of the 'peaceful protesters'? Do you really think we're that stupid?

Or as more protests take place.

😢

The testing is a sham! Completely inaccurate and all lies. Says this healthcare worker.

Cool everyone hates Florida hope all doesn’t end well

Congratulations DeSantis and Gaetz on helping keep America the leader in COVID-19 rate of infection and deaths. COVID19 coronavirus Florida

How many new deaths in those days? I’m tired of the fake news trying to create mass hysteria again. Yes, there r going to b more new cases as things open up, but we’re tired of y’all trying to ruin our country

Scamdemic 2.0

To add contacts, ABCNEWS is still looking for jussie Smollett’s Attackers. 😂😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂😂😂🤣 fyi Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself.

Of course the thousands of protesters had nothing to do with the spike in numbers.

And trump rallies

Duh... more people gonna get it...it has mild symptoms for avg person & 99.9% survival rate so who the fuck cares?

Beaches...really. How about protesters being on top of each other😏 AllLivesMatter not just BLM

You mean rioters

There is actually more testing going on. So more cases known. 99% cure rate.. stop scaring the public coronavirus

There is no fucken way you get the phony virus on a hot beach

Riots over, now back to covid

Anyone really surprised?

Who cares

🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Has nothing to do with mass protests right?

🥱 Florida is moving on. The rest of the country, including the fear-mongering fake news, should do the same. We will be okay as long as we have a functioning law enforcement system to protect us from the bigger enemy......that & with 2A, we the people, can fill in the gaps

Is DeSantis sick yet?

We should protest the coronavirus. That will fix it.

And the Rice network is so excited. Bring Trump down at any expense

Bull

HERDIMMUNITY

Let’s see if our governor reconsiders reopening everything here...

Notice they use a picture of pretty uncrowded beach and not massive protesters. So typical.

Darn new yorkers

When Biden leaves his basement and see his shadow the coronavirus season is shorter.

Thank a protester...

This was always going to happen and it may or may not mean anything. Butthe press will make it seem the State of Florida is becoming New York, because they can not stand this not being a crisis with no end, and a destroyed economy. As I read these stories, does anyone recover?

more interested in how many are hospitalized vs asymptomatic/mild cases

How do you get the virus in the outdoors under the sun at the beach thousands are in protest and numbers don’t jump.

And this too from cdc

For 30M people? Not a story.

FakeNews

Bullshit, look at cdc

The number of positives divided by the number of tests as a percentage is still lower than it was before. Therefore this number and screaming at the sky is a waste of time and nothing more than fearporn and FakeNews

Would you FakeNews liars like to mention the increase in testing? Or how about the flat death rate or the much lower mortality rate than you’ve ever reported? No? Doesn’t fit your agenda to lockdown the country and ruin the economy to hurt Trump? 🖕 liars.

Is it a requirement for being a Republican to be ignorant or reckless?

And a bunch of them are traveling here to Tulsa, bringing it with them. We already have it here. We don't need any additional infected coming from other states. Wisdom

And 4, yes 4, hospitalizations. Did you forget that part on purpose?

GovRonDeSantis you better watch the network news. They are trying to slam Florida to ruin you and GOP convention. dbongino
