"DeSantis for the win" -- Bring out your dead: Florida nursing home edition As governor eases COVID-forced restrictions at nursing facilities, many ask: Is this safe? https://www.floridatoday.com/story/...les-eased-florida-care-facilities/6034499002/ The recent loosening of restrictions on visitation at Florida nursing homes and assisted-living facilities hard-hit by COVID-19 invites a simple yet complicated question: Is this safe, especially for vulnerable older residents, as the coronavirus continues to spread? While Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Oct. 22 that any increased risk of infection will be outweighed by positive mental health benefits of increased social interaction, concerns continue to swirl. Less than 2% of Florida's population lives in nursing homes, yet those residents account for 40% of COVID-19 deaths in the Sunshine State, said Dave Bruns, spokesman for AARP Florida. More than 6,400 residents and staff members of long-term care facilities have died from COVID-19 in Florida, he said — overwhelmingly, residents. On Oct. 26, Department of Health reports showed 54 positive cases across 22 nursing homes and assisted living facilities in Brevard County. As of Oct. 29, 370 deaths in Brevard have been confirmed by the state since the beginning of the pandemic, and 220 of those were staff or residents of long-term care facilities such as nursing homes. The virus is "absolutely deadly" in elder care facilities, Bruns said, "if it manages to find a crack in one." (More at above url)
More than I care to admit. I waste time a lot arguing with morons. But the abortion dialogue was one day, today. You do this every single day.
` DeSantis tells everyone to go to work....... but, ‘Mail has been sitting for over a week!’: Disturbing video from inside Florida post office – mail-in ballots ‘piled up’ A top Florida congressman just tweeted out video from inside a Miami post office that shows what appears to be an out of control sorting facility with mail in bins and boxes in no discernible order. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy for months worked to slow down the processing and delivery of mail, and this video seems to show he was successful. “Mail has been sitting for over week!” Florida House of Representatives Democratic Leader Kionne McGhee says, noting “mail in ballots are within these piled up in bins on the floor.”
