    You really have no clue about human nature or mask use.

    So you make post after post about how horrible FL is handling things and when someone mentions again how other large states are worse, like CA, your answer is NOT comparable? Well, that’s freaking convenient:)

    Regarding illegals, someone else was trying to help CA with that problem and you soar in his face. And besides, all I hear is how great illegals are for the economy and well being of our country. Now they’re a detriment? Woah, so convenient again:)

    Wont have to move to California. At the rate which anti-masker/vaxxers are pissing people off in Florida this state will turn blue soon enough. Like you said, people are fleeing places like CA and FL/TX are where they go. But they don't exactly change their politics now do they? Republicans are making a massive strategic blunder with this anti-mask belligerence. They are bleeding voters while the other side grows and grows.

    Yes, in a dynamic of communicability population density matters and therefore making comparisons between two places with vastly different densities is useless. Sorry, find something else to make Democrats look bad with. Its not like you'll have to look far, you just cant use this. And you'll never hear me referring to illegals as anything positive.

    Sucks that Biden is sending infected illegals to Florida.

    Haha my guy, if you think the $0.10 mask is dirty throw that **** out and put on a new one. Now if you're telling me its human nature to be DISGUSTING then I agree with you but I'm not going to pander to the lowest common denominator when it comes to mitigating this pandemic. Put a few extra masks in your kids backpack each morning and tell them to change them when they feel gross. Boom, problem solved.

    Oh, here we go with California excuses. For what? Stupidity? If they are dumb enough to open their boarders and have sanctuary cities infecting their own citizens, you don't get to say, But that don't count.

    California is 3 times the land mass of Florida with 80 of 100 cities 200K and less in population so you can stop with all the density excuses. Their mask, business, and travel mandates were the toughest in the nation and they still have 6 times more infections than Florida proving your paper mask and isolation protocols don't work. At some stage everyone in the US will get Covid and there is no way to stop it.

    Florida has 307K active cases with 21 million people
    Virginia has 625K cases with 8.5 million people
    Maryland 448K cases with 6 million people
    Iowa, Arkansas, and Nevada have over 350K cases each with 3 million populations
    Oklahoma has 460K cases with only 4 million population

    Funny how nobody is crying about those states that have double and triple infection rates than Florida. Are they.
    It because Democrats have singled out DeSantis as a target. They don't give a rats ass about people. If they did they would be SCREAMING about all the states that have 4 and 5 times the infection rates.

    But why aren’t all of CAs amazing mitigation policies doing anything? All those lockdowns and mandatory mandates should have done wonders. But they didn’t. You wouldn’t have to make excuses about population density because it shouldn’t matter. Admit CA has ****ed up and FL has handled it so much better. The data doesn’t lie. Stop spinning.

    And glad you see illegals for what they are.

    They have, and for just cause. Because while other states are trying to slow the spread MoRon DeathSantis is doing everything he can to turbocharge it - and its working. So don't try to sell me on inconsequential comparisons with other states. Its like Democrats trying to make excuses for doing everything they can to enable murderers by pointing out that murder happens in red states too.

    You cant know they aren't doing anything because we don't have a parallel America to use as a control group. All we can know is that w/o mitigation things do get worse. Inversely if Florida actually applied some mitigation thins there would get better. But in general blame the user not the tool. Despite mandates for things like masks and shutdowns, not everyone is complying. People not participating or not doing it right, lawless sheriffs not enforcing, businesses not enforcing, and whatnot. The tools are fine, the users are screwing things up.

    Inconsequential comparisons? Like states with 25% of Florida's population with 4 times the infection rates.
    Yes, lets not compare Florida to any of these states because it shoots down everything you posted.
    How convenient it must be for you to think that every other states numbers are inconsequential comparisons. :roflol:
    Which only means you could care less about people as long as you can get your way with DeSantis.
    Pretty typical for leftist these days.

    Here we go with this nonsense again. "New cases reported" means absolutely nothing. Covid affects people differently. Let me know when we have numbers on how many have actually died from it. I don't mean phony numbers either.

    People who are vaccinated can get it but..

    1. They are far less likely to get it than someone who is unvaccinated
    2.They are less contagious if they do catch than someone who is unvaccinated who catches it
    and 3. Their symptoms are far less severe than they would be if they were unvaccinated

    Over 95% of people hospitalized for COVID, and over 99% of people who die from COVID are unvaccinated

    I know what I quoted so why don't you point out where it's wrong? Your link which you clearly don't understand verifies my post!
    Lol my link contains the same raw data from PHE used in your link. Try again

    And let's use your link again - in under 50s, 897 unvaccinated hospitalised, 48 double dosed vaccinated hospitalised

    I dont think the president was blamed for NY. Didn't you blame Cuomo? They even called him a murderer.
