Months too late, credibility short and too much Floridians dead already!

To be clear:
Test results are taking a week to return. Therefore, reporting of new infections is a week behind. On what other metrics are we not actually getting accurate data?

It’s a good thing the federal government’s response is not half-assed, or we wouldn’t know what is going on.

If it were half-assed, we would be in much better shape.

I am in Florida. I can get better information about Texas and Arizona than I can Florida. DeSantis’ press conferences are filled with stupid happy talk. The state refuses to provide up to date information or anything remotely like a plan to reduce the outbreak. He seems happy that the median age is lower this week than last. That is supposed to be some sort of win.

Wait, what?

Why would DeDipshit want to increase testing? Increased testing means increased cases!

Has he not been informed by Dear Leader?

The number of Republicans—from governors on down—who won’t be reelected is growing as fast as the infection rate.

I love it when people are drowning in the tragic, desperate results of their own gross incompetence and come out with these forthright, bull-by-the-horns sort of American Guy responsibility noises. “Is there room for improvement? There’s always room for improvement.” That sort of thing.

Shut down the state.

Getting faster test results is good, but no where near sufficient to reverse the COVID-19 explosion happening in Florida.

I mean, we probably should keep in mind that when a pandemic that particularly threatens older people is out of control in one—two—three—FLORIDA, that’s not a great situation.
