ktgrok Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 In can't make this up news, because our Governor won't do daily updates, and our department of health is only doing weekly numbers, our Secretary of agriculture is stepping up and doing her own daily Covid briefings. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'all, it does NOT say to quarantine if exposed! It just says to watch for symptoms, and if you have two or more, get a test. Have you seen Alberta, Canada’s new guidelines? They’re saying that as well, but also that kids with a positive Covid test don’t have a stay home from school !! They basically seem to be taking an extreme let ‘er rip position. Yikes. Talk about an experiment. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cintinative Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 @ktgrok I made the mistake of reading some articles including one where DeSantis said he won't force kids to wear masks in schools because "we need our kids to breathe." I just can't even believe it sometimes. Shaking my head so hard right now. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, the irony of saying we shouldn't protect kids from a respiratory virus because they need to breathe is impressive. I don't know if there are any Angel fans on here, but I'm convinced Wolfram and Hart is real and DeSantis works for them. Rick Scott is also a villain from that universe, but more a Buffy character like the weird doctors from Whisper. I think what I'm saying is Florida is located on a Hell Mouth.

ktgrok Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Just now, Wheres Toto said: Countdown to the Florida Secretary of Agriculture getting fired in 5....4....3..... I'm almost positive it is an elected position (but am tired so not 100 percent on anything right now). The governor already hates her. When they had meetings about Florida's reopening (too soon) all the cabinet members were invited EXCEPT Secretary of Agriculture. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to get the thread so off track. I thought sunshine laws would prohibit them from excluding a member. ETA: I guess it means they can't exclude the public, so I was wrong?
