    Take the shots or don’t take the shots.
    But still wear a mask out in public. SARS-CoV-2 infection is transmitted predominately by inhalation of respiratory droplets generated when people cough, sneeze, sing, talk, or breathe.

    Well just because this new surgeon general went to Harvard means diddly. There’s as many kooks graduated Harvard as any other University. DeSantis appointed him cause he is anti science, period. Look at the vaccination rate in Escambia county in relation to the virus rate. As vaccinations slowly increase, virus rates slowly decrease. That doesn’t require a Harvard degree to see. Study after study shows the same for all mitigation recommendations from the CDC. Ignore FACTS if you want and embrace conspiracy theories and non fact based notions. But please don’t try to support your anti mask and anti vaccine views based on them. Just state you oppose both and are willing to suffer the personal consequences as well as the irresponsibility to the public at large. In other words you care little about yourself and nothing about your family, neighbors and community. Just be honest with yourself and the rest of us. We can accept the truth from you rather than stupid lies and non fact based crazy talk.

    What? It is declining without a vaccine mandate, no mask mandate, schools running with extracurriculars, nothing shutting down, Low state vaccination rates, and on top of all that our republican govener refuses to fallow “COVID status quo” and the hospitalizations are still declining?!?!?

    Governor DeSantis has hired the free state of Florida a new Surgeon General, Dr. Jospeh Ladago, who has a MD and a PhD from Harvard, This guy is gonna be the kryptonite to both Covid and liberals. Thank you Governor Desantis!

    I had the virus a year and a half ago, got over the Delta the first of August last month. I am retired and in good shape. Delta only had me in bed two days. I do not need the vaccine. I know what is best for me.

    Until the next wave.

    Get vaccinated to stop it!

    Look around, see the states that are and the ones the has low vaccination rates. We are failing to do what we need to do. FDA approved!

    We can do this.
