Tampa Mayor Jane Castor was acting on behalf of her city to combat the coronavirus about a week before her state's governor did the same for all of Florida

When there's a hurricane, the rest of the country comes to their rescue. Not now. Covid-19 is like a hurricane hitting everyone, everywhere."You can't send out the call for help," Castor told CNN in a virtual interview from Tampa's Old City Hall."In this situation, the rest of the country is in the same position as we are, and so it's something that each and every one of us throughout the nation are going to have to address -- really on our own," she added.

"No one in the United States has been able to test at an adequate level. I mean, we in essence have lost that battle," she added with chilling yet realistic bluntness. She forced a stay-at-home order in Tampa while statewide, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis held off. As the US last month was wrapping its head around the need for social distancing to fight the virus, some of the starkest images of defiance were apparent at Florida's beaches.

And here’s updated Florida data (remember, Florida just went on a relatively loose lockdown, no way it could be having an impact yet): 2000 FEWER patients and 200 FEWER ICU patients than yesterday. You read that right. Florida hospitals are emptier today.

U.S. sounds alarm on coronavirus in Japan, Tokyo pushes for state of emergencyThe U.S. government on Friday sounded alarm about the surge in coronavirus cases in Japan, adding to a chorus of prominent domestic voices - including the governor of Tokyo - who have called for decisive action to avoid an explosive outbreak. Second Wave arrival model Japan has been utterly ignorant and naive, careless, in the spreading of the pandemic. Now the bill is there. No Olympic this year, so the government reveals the truth. Japaneses place 'stable' over FreedomOfSpeech and Democracy. No one has challenged the government which led to the result. No Asia myth. Observe your countries by and for yourselves.
