They might arrive there and test negative but they are most certainly leaving there infected with something - stomach bugs, strep, the flu, regular colds and/or some version of Covid.

People need to use their heads and stop this insanity. It's going to make everyone sick.
The same people hoarding toilet paper are the ones wearing cloth masks alone outside and standing in line for hours trying to contract COVID in their cloth masks. They are also Democrat voters.

Thing is, for those who are able to understand basic math and statistics... it's plain to see that you self-righteous folks in the most restricted and vaccinated states in the union are no better off than the folks in the most lax states. You've wasted your time, money, and livelihood for nearly two years with no significant advantage. Your BS isn't working for most people now. And the rest will come around as it becomes so obvious a caveman could understand.

Even that wouldn’t be obvious enough. They’ve let the media brainwash them into believing only Republicans and folks in red states are unvaccinated, capable of spreading the virus, etc…, and that doesn’t even take into account the fear that’s been instilled in them, lol.

It’s funny how quiet they’ve been about AOC being here and so many folks moving here in droves out of the Dem cesspool cities/states.

Well, the good news is that the most brainwashed of the lot will probably avoid Florida for the rest of their lives. If they ever leave their blue state basement.

Bingo. Those folks are scared of the virus, DeSantis, meanie Republicans, etc…, which is a great thing for this states people. Even brighter spots are that folks are registering Republican and property values have skyrocketed.

I think Florida is a tourist attraction that really doesn't pay attention to the coronavirus rules because people from all over the world have different view points about the disease. And they meet in Florida, find themselves in a situation where the community of people are made up of "no worry" and "we are the only day", and statements like this. These generally dominate the minds of people and forget that there is a danger in the virus and the disease known as COVID-19. So they continue as they were. The tourism industry there is also influential behavior to the greater demands of the population, whether unvaccinated or vaccinated requirements.

because thankfully, those in charge in some states - FL chief among them - realize that CASES!1!!!!!!!! are almost meaningless.

FL's hospitalizations are well under half of the Delta surge. ICU beds are 1/4. And this with CASES!!!!1111!! above even the Delta surge for 10 days now.

the problem is that more of them are doubling down and grasping at straws than are waking up and realizing all the mistakes and missteps and admitting their error.

You must have just enjoyed the beach.

I was there for a week. Went to a concert. Had to show my vaccination record, wear a mask. Didn't even have to do that in Colorado this summer.

That’s not right. Your assumptions are wrong. I had covid and suffered until I got my results back and then called my Dr. -People can’t get treated until results come, so you have to wait - what else you want them to do? Btw some one collapsed in a line this week. They should have two lines. Sick n those been in contact but not sick.
