Ron DeSantis' push to stop school mask mandates is plowing ahead despite a legal challenge from parents, with education officials enacting a rule to protect non-masked students from “COVID-19 harassment”

that offers parents vouchers to send their children to private schools or even a different school district other counties if they object to masks.

The Republican governor has made his resistance to mandates and lockdowns central to his appeal as he marches toward reelection and an expected presidential bid in 2024. But his policies are under increased scrutiny amid the spike in cases statewide. On Friday, Florida reported more than 22,000 new infections, the highest single-day number since the pandemic started.

“If we see a school district who is either unwilling or unable to comply with the law, then we the state board, we have certain authority of either withholding state funds or other tools in our toolbox,” Gibson said Friday. The state defined Covid-19 harassment as wide range of threatening or discriminatory actions that a student could suffer from due to school Covid-19 protocols, including masking, isolating non-masked students, and testing requirements.

If people in Florida were smart they wouldn’t give two craps what DeSatan does or says. Everyone in that state should be doing whatever it takes to keep themselves and others safe. What is his problem? What has happened to this country?

🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️

First, DeSantis is politicising children for personal gain, they will get sick, some will be left with permanent disabilities and, I hope I'm wrong, some will die. So what will be done to stop him. Nothing probably.This is absolutely abhorrent. What has happened to law and order?

DeSantis is picking up where Trump left off in screwing up covid response. This time, instead of seniors getting sick and dying, it will be little kids.

Just a question if my grandchild gets COVID is going to pay for it

This mask story is'nt working anymore, Time to get it over with.

His method may have been the correct choice with the original Coronavirus in 2020. That same thinking is not going to work with the new strains. People need to be willing to change their POV as new data and strains appear.

Any parent that does not want their kids masked this year in school is an idiot. Packing 30 unmasked kids in a class is the perfect atmosphere for the spread of Coronavirus.

Povo precioso Jesus Cristo está voltando o tempo acabou Recebam Jesus Cristo sejam santos

Every day I read about someone who delayed/refused the vaccine, got really sick and admitted they should have taken the vaccine. Some of these people have even died. People haven’t died from the vaccine but from the virus

This country is doomed.

For 20+ years Republicans have been trying to cram vouchers down Florida’s throat. This is them sinking even lower in morality by leveraging their mismanagement of COVID to finally really seal the deal.

Dr. Death

You know in high school when some students took gym class or biology class? Most Republicans took gym class. (I have a hunch the Ronner did too.)

Florida Shatters Records For New Covid Cases And Hospitalizations As Gov. DeSantis Resists Calls For New RestrictionsDeSantis is actively working to prevent Florida localities and schools from enacting restrictions, and has called claims of a health crisis in the state a 'media hysteria.' Right now, Floridian can choose to follow DeSantis whom he, his family and cronies are vaccinated or follow the CDC. Right now DeSantis should stop being a m***a f***ing factor. Yet in these story's, Anybody notice these story's never say anything about big crowds and no mask. We still do not have the numbers of people that say they got the vax, But they really lied, just to hang out with they're friends. They never show them numbers, do they? DeSantis should be held personally accountable for any increase in death rates due to his directives to reduce covid restrictions, particularly while Delta is on the rise and there is a potential for a new strain to appear.
