We have a mask mandate here in California. It is not enforced, and by my estimate about 20% of people I pass don’t wear a mask (higher in some cities). The media needs a new angle here.

If it keeps increasing like this, by the time schools have to reopen they will be shutting down everything again and impose a curfew

SERIOUS QUESTION ~ If you had ONLY 7 days LEFT to LIVE your LIFE, would you STILL WEAR a MASK and AVOID your family and friends? Would you CONTINUE to STAND 6ft. apart from everyone? Would you NOT GIVE ANYONE a HUG?

How many died?

Guess what? Cases≠deaths! I'll bet you've never heard that before, have you? What's that? You're tired of me saying it? Awww...what if it's the CDC?

Are you not entertained?!

Sometimes my ego gets me in trouble with my wife bcuz I don't want to admit that I was wrong, even when I clearly was. Who wants to admit they left that bowl in the sink?Wonder if DeSantis has that same problem, but in his case, his wife is the entire State of Florida?

Yawn...

Lol FL is fuuuucked

Florida is a disaster

RonDeSantisFL can you please mandate masks statewide now? Because of your lack of leadership with this people are still acting like it’s not a big deal. People are dying and my family is at risk! It’s not political its looking out for one another! Not complicated WearAMask

Palm Beach County, home of Maralago has more cases than 18 States....

To think of the preventable deaths if only we had leadership that stood behind science and data.

And only 45 deaths and declining. Report THAT

Maybe that's because it also marks the largest single-day increase of testing.... Seriously, are INTENTIONALLY trying to deceive the American public, or are you just that bad at data analysis? Because, you know, you're reporters and all?

I'm sorry but they need too Shut the State Down!!!!!!! Stay home!!!!! Only go out for essentials and WEAR A MASK!!!!!. Again Stay Home!!

The masks can only help so much. We need another lockdown and a better bailout plan for citizens. We need to freeze rent/mortgage.

Stick the governors kids in public school.

GovRonDeSantis do you believe what you say becuz i heard from u the economy was more important than a few people dieing. We will not forget a thing

ScotMackRI Jaysus, Mary and Joseph!

Florida Governor Jumps the Shark! DeSantis, who won't mandate the use of masks as his state becomes the epicenter of the pandemic, is like the mayor in 'Jaws' who insisted people enter the water being patroled by a killer shark because closing beaches would be bad for business.

'Gov. Ron DeSantis has yet to impose a statewide mask mandate.' But NPR can still hope. It's all part of the plan.

Total failure. DeSantisResign

Perhaps because it is reported that as many as 30% or more of those cases are old cases just now being recorded. Got narrative, NPR?

Yeah let’s all celebrate at Disney

Oh goodie. PardonMeTrump

GovRonDeSantis RonDeSantisFL Mike_Pence Remember when you said this?

Now do death percentages.

Wear a mask pls

To the tune of Disney’s “It’s a Small World After All!”

Gosh DeSantis 15,200 cases of Covid in one day? Great time to open schools for our most innocent lives?

CoronaDeathExpertDeSantis

Out of control!! Results cannot be explained away by increased testing. Even the Governor said that several days ago.

Oh?

More tests = more positives

Isnt it still sunday?

RonDeSantisFL Unfortunately doctor Fauci is right and Governor DeSantis is totally wrong. I wish of Governor listens to the experts and understands that the facts are the facts.

Floridas feelin Hot Blooded with a 103 degree fever🤢

Congrats, FL‼️👍🏻 You've got the most diseased people, with the most 'freedom & rights'. I hope that works out for ya.

It’s truly shocking how many people don’t want to believe the facts. I’m frightened by the ignorance.

Hope that payoff was worth it Mr. Governor

Why don't you look into how many of the labs in FL running these tests are showing 100% positives? Do you honestly believe it is logistically possible for dozens of labs to have 100% positives?

He a serial killer. When is the morgue truck rolling in like texas

Getting Trump admin to start testing was a nightmare. We now test but do absolutely nothing with the result. Nobody talks about contact tracking. Why are we not getting reports of the number of people contacted due to the test outcome of someone in their orbit.

Scary, deaths usually come 6-8 weeks after diagnosis.

Vinslayer15 And that is the tale of the tape! ron desantis is equally as incompetent as trump! Need I say more?

DeSantisFailedFlorida

Never fear Florida! You won’t be 1 for long. Sincerely, your pal Georgia.

What a disaster. The governor I mean... what a disaster.

But by all means, re-open the schools.

Way to go Florida!

Well, at least Disney World is open now. Ugh

For some reason NPR 'forgot ' to report fatalities Remember states always report both: new cases and new deaths. Looks like deaths numbers were to small for NPR..45. Wait 2 weeks more ? But FL already in full 4 week since cases exploded ..NY, at same point reported 850 deaths

DeSantis and Trump told us for months: It's the flu It's going to disappear It's a blue state thing only old people have to worry LIBERATE Go have fun, work, eat, shop, drink Open up Send the kids to school Trump owns these deaths. Every single one. GOP is death

They are after these red states!

Cases don't matter.

Republican logic. smh...

Florida elected a serial killer as governor.

Now that trump is seen wearing a mask will that change his mind

How many are sick? How many free beds in the hospitals?

Lies! So many positive tests means how many actual test were conducted? Over 100,000? I seriously doubt those numbers. Looks like political activists are behind those numbers.

Can’t we the people do anything about these monsters in power? Recall? Lord help us.

DuhSantisStupidity is going to make this so much worse. ❤️ to those living through these hard times. Stay home. wearamask

Perspective:

it’s a good thing they didn’t open Disney World...o wait

GovRonDeSantis marcorubio MarioDB

Florida's increased case count is a result of..

Excellent! Great testing and well on the way to herd immunity.

Awww we cool though...we have Tesla charging stations now 😂😂😂

They had all the time to prepare. They saw what happened in NY, but they thought it happened to us because we're a 'blue state'. The way DeSantis, Abbott, Reeves, Ducey, Trump and the GOP have handled this pandemic is not just incompetent or sloppy. It's downright criminal.

GREAT NEWS: FLA is moving more rapidly toward “herd immunity.”

Many predicted millions of elderly will die in Florida from covid19 by election day. MAGA

Governor Ron DeathSentence (R)

Blame govrondesantis get him out! he just opened Walt Disney this weekend & he had nightclubs open as late as Memorial Day weekend. It’s leaders like this that are making this disaster worst for all of US!Floridian be smarter & elect intelligent competent ind not this criminal

It's not about how many people are getting COVID-19. It is about how many people are dying from COVID-19. Let's talk about the death rate. How many people have it, how many people have died from it and what is the death rate. What is the trend over the last month?

He’s an idiot

TBF, there was a MASSIVE result dump, over 140k results today.

This is fake.

DeSantis, put on a mask w/'Scarlett letters SS, 'Social Sardiner,'' if only to hide your face in shame.. - FL noted 15,299 new coronavirus cases today; largest single-day total of any state since pandemic began. Gov. DeSantis has no statewide mask mandate

Oh, well... there went the state of Florida! Lol

Defund NPR communist narrative

Cruz he's COVIDIOTS Floridalockdown desatanist

DeathSantis

Way to go Florida, stick it to the libs. Show them you dont care how many peoplw die, youre not falling for that liberal biased science. Deny reality! High five! truerebels ignoranceisbliss

You go Florida!!

But did they die

Florida also did 142K tests yesterday to keep them in line with their current percentage positive tests but don't that interfere with your headline.

Sounds like some people want this man-made virus to spread.

COVID-XPLOSION!

And the death rate?

Sadness

DeSantisResign thank you for keeping Florida safe from COVID-19 spreading by mandating mask wearing when out, requiring that bars and beaches stay closed and ensuring students, teachers, and parents that schools will remain closed until there’s a vaccine 🙄 WE WILL VOTE YOU OUT!

This is intentionally misleading. Total tests in Florida surged. The positivity rate actually went down.

Because the numbers are a lie

All of Fla is in Phase 2 except Miami-Dade & Broward. GovRonDeSantis has done nothing to slow the spread except close bars. Sad DeSantisFailedFlorida

Slow the testing down please!

They have no clue what follows these counts. Not just numbers with no ramifications.

You misspelled Gov. DeDumbass.

Would Floridians wear them if he mandated them? The death toll in the weeks to come is going to be catastrophic 😢

And 44 deaths. Heading to single digits....

And that was at 1:00 pm 🤦‍♀️

The Govenor like others have pledged their loyalty to the politics of Trumpism over the lives of constituents. Don’t forget that during this election season.

I recall DeSantis bragging, just a couple of weeks ago, about how Florida had not succumbed to rising COVID-19 cases, as predicted.

Show us the data that proves masks work! microns matter N95

300 cases and four deaths The company took temperatures and gave out hand sanitizer on the factory floor. Another garment worker who tested positive for Covid-19 while working at an LA Apparel factory, says workers wore masks.

Ladies and gentlemen! The party of sickness and death! The GOP! Governor Desantis is as unpatriotic as they come.

It's only 4pm

And it’s taking off. 10k yesterday, 15k today. 50k a day by Wednesday?

And they all move around in cars!

GovRonDeSantis i trust you a lot more than those dnc enablers at taxpayer subsided NPR fools. Can GOP remind me why my tax dollars go to this garbage?

DeSantis needs to be impeached immediately

WearAMask it’s easy to do.

GovRonDeSantis continues to be a jackass

Great news for Disney opening!
