Like in North Carolina? Dropping like that? If your governor was doing a good job, the death rate wouldn't be doubling or tripling would it? LOL
Our governor and his public health director hold press briefings nearly every day. They outline that things are bad --- and what they are doing well and what is not going well. All in a very honest straight-forward manner. The primary message is that people need to follow the rules if they desire for things to improve. The only good news over the past few days is that the trend in cases, hospitalizations, and deaths is now down... We are hoping this trend continues. So when is Ron DeSantis holding a press briefing with reputable public health officials to give honest information about the COVID situation in Florida and urging the state follow the health measures recommended for the state by the federal government?
Right, right. So when death counts in North Carolina are two or three times as high now, its because of some other reason besides bad governorship. But in Florida, death counts being as high as they were last summer are a testament to a bad governor. What a joke. Tell me, do you actually believe the horseshit you try to shovel?

I don't know, I don't see any problem with his current press conferences. As I said, Florida has been getting better for months now and its death per 1M is the lowest since the pandemic began - and it is better than half the country. Recent reported death numbers are high, but nowhere near as high as other states OR even your state in comparison to where they were. Oh, and Florida has been open since June of last year, thank God for its residents. Which reminds me, I need to look up the unemployment stats again to compare.
Unemployment data from the BLS site. I've shaded blue or red whether that state tends to be blue or red politically (which is a direct correlation to the lockdown policies in general, thus affecting employment).
Remember, boys and girls. When the number is at (near, actually) an all-time high in Florida, DeSantis is a bad governor. When it is double or triple what it used to be (and at all time highs) in North Carolina, it is due to good things happening at the state level. Or something. The GWB narrative:
I would like to note that COVID deaths in North Carolina yesterday on February 1st was a total of 7. On Jan 31st it was 48. Yeah... our deaths, cases, and hospitalizations are in a downtrend in North Carolina. Let's hope it continues. The spike was caused by holiday travel -- according to experts. It should also be noted our death totals include patients that were brought to our hospitals from neighboring states. Our healthcare systems are significantly better than the border regions of surrounding states -- so their COVID patients are being brought to our ICUs. At least our governor is being straight-forward and honest about the COVID situation in our state and is putting policies in place aligned with federal recommendations -- unlike the governor of Florida. Governor Cooper's next COVID news conference is at 2pm today -- feel free to listen in to understand the proper way for a political leader to address COVID.
Right. There are all sorts of reasons why it spiked in North Carolina. When it spikes in Florida, there is only one reason: DeSantis is bad. I honestly don't give a rat's ass about what happens in North Carolina. I don't fixate/obsess on a state that isn't mine for more than a fleeting glance. But pointing out the blatant hypocrisy you tend to throw around regularly is rather hilarious.
Yeah.... you seem to enjoy "little Trump" DeSantis who hides COVID data and lies to the population regularly. That you don't see anything wrong with this behavior makes me shake my head in wonderment.
