Florida continues to report fewer new cases of the Chinese coronavirus than New York State, despite the absence of lockdowns or a statewide mask mandate, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data shows.
The CDC’s March 19 data shows Florida reporting 143.5 cases per 100,000, or 30,820 cases total, in the last seven days.
As Breitbart News has observed, CDC data routinely separates New York City’s data from the remainder of the Empire State. Even so, both areas, taken separately, exceed Florida in new cases per capita in the last seven days. New York State, excluding the city, reported 212.1 cases per 100,000, or 23,450 cases total, in the last seven days. New York City has reported 238 cases per 100,000, or 19,985 cases, in the same time period. Combined, New York State has reported over 12,600 more cases than Florida in the last seven days alone. Florida has also reported fewer deaths per capita than New York State as a whole throughout the pandemic, per CDC data.
Critics have continued to batter the Florida governor for refusing to embrace long-lasting lockdown measures, despite the data suggesting Florida’s coronavirus policy has not led to greater case spread.
DeSantis Thursday, flanked by experts who praised the tactics his state embraced in response to the virus, also took a hardline stance against the prospect of vaccine passports, vowing they will not be used in the Sunshine State.

But at what cost?
Stop reporting this z.
Keep the Yankees in the
hell they created .
Build a wall around hell .
Better managed state focused on educating people to use their common sense vs. trying to totally control them, a much more successfully implemented vaccination roll out that is a model for the nation - let alone not making horrendous decisions like ordering COVID patients into nursing homes.
It be cuz that Covid is racissss.
It hits onto black folks more than whites. That’s a fact.
Even if it born in Florida it be soon movin’ up north to look for black folks in New York.

Add in the million people who are here for the winter...
It s a virus it spreads....masks and lockdowns do little if antything to stop the spread in real numbers....just takes longer for it to
I wish we would all can it with the red and blue crap. Yesterday’s red state is today’s blue state and vice versa.
But at what cost?
???
For FL???
Hmmmm....that’s a toughy, but...I’ll go with bustling economy, healthy kids, overall much improved mental health of all ages....since they’ve been seeing each other’s faces and communicating in person....at stores, churches, restaurants, etc.
And, as the article states....FEWER CASES OF CHINA FLU than BLUE NY.
What exactly do you mean by....”at what cost?”
Love our Gov!
I think it depends on the partisan makeup of transplants moving to Florida between now and 2024. Democrats are a little bit behind now so they’ll need to make up 70% (or greater) of the transplants to have a chance in 2024.
Crowding indoors defeats a mask, easily. And watching those parties getting busted an hour in within NYC tells you all you need to know: enforcement is a joke.
The issue is FREE States and FEAR States!
King Cuomo does not like to hear this.
Yet in Broward I am refused service if unmasked. Seriously, broward is the giant tumor on this great state.
Masks do nothing...CDC report...might be a two percent reduction in spread at most.....that is if you can believe the CDC.
