In a push to re-open schools, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis falsely claims no one under 25 has died from COVID-19 nationwide
Also, DeSantis inexplicably ignores — or is too stupid to realize — that all people, no matter their age, can carry the coronavirus. So, even while the governor says he recognizes and acknowledges that parents or elderly relatives are at risk, by letting children go back to school, he fails to understand the concept of public distancing to prevent transmissions to vulnerable populations.
piece on the governor published on Friday, DeSantis’ overall response to the crisis has been questionable at best. He ignored early stay-at-home recommendations from the CDC. He paid more attention to Trump’s wants than the health needs of Florida residents. Using an approach that followed the mantra that “saving the economy” would save more lives, Florida finally had to bend to the will of the crisis on April 1 when the state passed 7,000 cases of COVID-19 and 100 coronavirus-related deaths.
