Floridian here too. I have always been surprised how good of a governor DeSantis turned out to be. I thought he was going to be horrible, but he has done very well. I give him credit for how well he has handled Covid in a very unique state. A state with the most vulnerable, a state with the most travel coming in from other hotspots and the 3rd most populous state. Two thumbs up here.
I’ve been surprised by DeSantis as well. We dodged a major bullet when he beat Gillum.

He's done a great job. If we had a Democrat governor, we'd be suffering like they are in NY, MI, NJ, PA, etc. Endless lockdowns for no reason.
Not sure what part of South Florida you live in but my mother lives in Pompano Beach/Fort Lauderdale and said that most of the places they go are no longer enforcing masks. During our weekly conversation the other day she mentioned at least a dozen bars and restaurants as well as a couple of grocery stores that she had been to in the previous week or so and that they were not requiring people to wear masks.
I have not see a single grocery store which will let people in without a mask. It is a county rule, and it is enforced. I posted a link to it.
I am talking about where I live, which is South Florida.
Except GoldenPines and I just got done telling you the bars and restaurants in South Florida are NOT enforcing the mask mandates except when you walk through the door.

It's no longer enforced. Ofc Publix or WholeFoods (chains) will probably enforce it. But smaller, individually operated neighborhood grocery stores are doing their own thing.
Republican describes three-pronged approach to fighting pandemic on 'Life, Liberty & Levin'
"You can't kneecap your own society and think you're going to successfully handle a pandemic," Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis told Fox News' "Life, Liberty & Levin" in an interview airing Sunday night.

Yes, that is the rule. How would you eat and drink with a mask on? Can we use common sense?
Reopened businesses must still follow the requirements of Broward County’s Emergency Orders, including sanitization, wearing of facial coverings and posting of required signage. To help stop the spread of COVID-19, it is important for residents to adhere to social distancing and wear a facial covering in public.
Cover Your Face
The CDC recommends and Broward County Emergency Orders require residents and visitors, unless otherwise exempted, to wear a facial covering in public, and to wear it properly, including over the nose and mouth. The facial covering can be constructed of any material, but should utilize CDC guidelines. Disposable face masks and gloves are not recyclable – please dispose of properly.
You can report violations anonymously online at MyBroward.Broward.org. Select “Request for Service,” enter the location of the violation, and select “COVID-19 Business Complaints” as the Type of Issue. You can also call the Broward County Call Center at 311 or 954-831-4000.
?????? There were shutdowns -- they were having checkpoints coming into the state.
