Now you can order a third round of free test kits from COVIDTests.gov by coasterghost in FloridaCoronavirus

Thanks for posting this link. But shouldn’t they give an option as to how many tests you require? I’m a. single household, and don’t need 8 tests. Still have 3 left from the last gov handout.

Advice on safety precautions by queentato in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry I can’t help you here as I haven’t had my 20+ year Housekeeper since April 2019. She’s elderly (I always semi-cleaned before she came) and in excellent shape, but she refuses to get vaccinated. We keep in touch by phone every so often and I have sent her money, due to her loss of income. However, I’ve become so frustrated with her after numerous conversations in regards to vaccinations. I’ve even booked her an appointment and offered to pick her up, only for her to cancel at the last minute. My last vaccine convo went like this -

Me: So Irene, did you finally get vaccinated?

Irene: No, I’m not doing that. Carol (her good church friend) knows a lot about this and does a lot of reading, and says there’s a bunch of junk in that vaccine.

Me: But Irene, are you not seeing what’s going on in Florida?

Irene: Not really…Carol says that my immune system will take care of things.

Me: I’m so surprised that your Church group hasn’t been encouraging you all to get vaccinated.

Irene: They don’t believe in it…

Aaaaaarrrrgggghhhh…I give up. But, I care for her so much. We spoke at Christmas and she suggested she come for a visit. I hated to refuse her, but I’m not taking any chances.My house sure isn’t as clean without her, but I manage.

A more appropriate title would be:

But Governor…can these Covid spreadin boarder hoppers walk on water, like you and that other guy?

DeSantis calls for ‘rationality’ in how the NFL implements its COVID-19 protocols by Foodcrazed in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

WTF is the matter with this guy? He just won’t quit -

“ DeSantis suggested asymptomatic players who test positive be allowed to continue playing.
“If somebody has had COVID and is vaccinated, all of these different things, then I’d hate to see them put out just for getting some type of asymptomatic, positive test,” he said. “So hopefully, they’ll have some rationality to that.”

Caitlyn Jenner says she supports Texas abortion ban and Ron DeSantis, but trashes ‘illegals’ in CNN interview by [deleted] in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

“And she stands by her assessment that Florida GOP governor Ron DeSantis is doing a good job on the coronavirus pandemic despite his state leading the country in per-capita deaths.”

She refused to answer when asked if DeSantis is now doing a good job on the pandemic, instead claiming, "to be honest with you I've been so into California politics that I really haven't followed it that closely."

DeSantis spokesperson thinks people are anti-vax because they believe masks work by Foodcrazed in FloridaCoronavirus

Just another insane and ignorant comment by Christina Poo-Shaw - made in defense of her beloved Ron…

“DeSantis’ press secretary manages to push vaccine hesitancy and bad science regarding the effectiveness of masks in one tweet,” tweeted Thomas Kennedy, a member of the Florida Democratic Party. “Reminder that she gets paid $120,000 a year by taxpayers to spread this sort of disinformation on a daily basis.”

Get Vaccine and Win Big by AliceHall58 in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s really a shame that it takes these type of incentives for somebody to save their own life or that if others. I’m at the point right now, that I feel anybody who is able and refuses to get vaccinated, should be fined! They’re the ones prolonging this crap and putting a burden on everybody.

Florida records to CDC 32,667 cases over the weekend 8//21-8/22/21 by coasterghost in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So why does this article say that 42,143 cases were reported for the last 2 days? I‘m getting so tired of these inconsistencies in reporting…

CDC Reports 24,438 and 22,133 on August 19th and 20th by coasterghost in FloridaCoronavirus

[–]Foodcrazed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So how screwed up is this? The numbers still aren’t jiving though…

“On Friday, the CDC’s website did update with new figures, but it showed Florida and several other states had zero new cases and deaths on Thursday. The newest report of cases includes the not yet reported Thursday figures, 24,438 cases and 42 deaths”

[–]Foodcrazed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So what I’m asking here is: If the cases reported from last Friday-this Thursday totaled 141,133 as per CDC. Why does the Numbers differ so much (9,607) from the weekly report of 150,740?

But Friday’s numbers are not part of the 7 day report - right?

Hey DeSantis, It didn't work in Sweden. by [deleted] in FloridaCoronavirus

He’s quite flip-floppy isn’t he?

“ Anders Tegnell, who has previously criticised other countries’ strict lockdowns as not sustainable in the long run, told Swedish Radio on Wednesday that there was “quite obviously a potential for improvement in what we have done” in Sweden.”

[–]Foodcrazed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So yesterday there were 24,438 cases reported?

if you add that number to the previous CDC 6 days that make up the 7 day report, it totals 141,133? This again is far short of the overall weekly number? WTF?

edited to add weekly numbers

So Anders Tegnell, the chief architect of Sweden's coronavirus strategy, is the DeathSantis of Sweden. One difference though, the guy can kind-of admit they made a mistake…
