“Florida is requesting an extra 300 ventilators from the federal government while also threatening to withhold pay from school officials who enact mask mandates. Make it make sense.”
“99.5 percent of the death that we have because of COVID are in the unvaccinated population,” Lenchus says. “The people who stay here longer are unvaccinated, the people that are a little more severe are unvaccinated, so it really is a big difference. Even if you are vaccinated, and you make it into the hospital, the chances are much higher that you will make it out than if you were unvaccinated.”
Most disturbing of all as the new school year begins? The rise in cases in children. “Last year we didn’t see this tremendous explosion of kids,” Lenchus shares. “I think part of this has to do with the Delta variant, the increase in infectivity of this, and the fact that those kids at least 12 and younger have not been vaccinated.”
So a virus that’s shown to infect and hospitalize children is ripping through the state while the governor insists on no mask mandates in schools, and now the state is requesting 300 more ventilators because their number of hospitalized cases is growing. DeSantis is refusing to mandate masks and drawing on the federal reserve of ventilators for residents of his state as case levels continue to climb. Doing the least and asking for the most. That all adds up.
