Governor Ron DeSantis wants to allow parents to decide whether to quarantine their kids if they've been exposed to covid.

Essentially handing every moron in the state a license to kill.

"Number of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) deaths in the U.S. as of September 15, 2021, by age*

All ages: 658,754
Ages 0-17: 439"

DeSantis seems plenty sane to me. Especially since he also has pushed to make vaccinations available for anyone who wants them, with highest priority for the elderly.

So Florida - which is not only the 3rd most populous state in the country, but also has a disproportionate amount of elderly people who are especially vulnerable to Covid - has had a lot of Covid deaths?

I am...completely unsurprised by that.

"DeSantis is batshit crazy 52,000 dead and growing."

I wouldn't pay attention to any numbers coming out of Florida. DeSantis has been playing hide the salami with Florida's numbers for most of this pandemic.

I wonder if Florida's stand your ground law covers being menaced with a deadly virus.

Florida GOP now looking at rescinding measles & mumps vaccine requirements, while continuing to spread disinformation that the Covid vaccine isn't "proven to work"

That's amazing! But over here we have people actively trying to spread it around just to prove that they are more MAGA than the next idiot.

Even though the Head MAGA is vaccinated. :o)

Florida can probably "get away with" this more than most places, in spite of their elderly population, because so many of those old people's grandkids live 5 or 10 states away.

I don't know what had me googling this, but at a glance it appears that Latinos die less than white people or black people, relative to their population.
