Florida Governor Ron DeSantis (R) said on Wednesday that state officials will stop sending COVID-19 tests to labs that are slow to turn around results.
Hmmmm…not sure if this is “ favoritism” to some testing lab owners OR this is a trumpian scam to suppress testing numbers similar to what Trump did by taking away the reporting from CDC! Maybe it’s both!
That’s the problem
They’ve fixed it so you have no way of knowing if they are telling the truth
Going on their record I would say the default is “They’re Lying”
Until someone proves different
Can we add lack of testing supplies leads to longer wait times?
Can we add when the same guy kept things open when they should have shut down, and re-opened before he had the plans in place to track and trace the spread then, and is now complaining about the volume that these labs after to deal with.
DeSantis is a “I take no responsibility for piss poor prior planning” governor that is near and dear in Trump’s heart.
Meanwhile in Georgia, Gov Kemp is banning localities from ordering people to wear masks.
He said it should be voluntary, “including telling fans that reduced infections from mask-wearing would make college football season possible.” (HuffPost)
Gov Abbott will pickup on this rational as well. Football rules!
