Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday that the state will not reimpose sweeping shutdowns amid rising coronavirus infections, saying that going back to lockdowns would cripple the economy without saving lives. DeSantis drew the line even as Texas Gov. Greg Abbott last week ordered all bars closed, and Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey told residents to stay home and declared that the state was “on pause." Just last week, after the state recorded 25,000 new infections in just five days and 9,000 in one day alone, Florida once again prohibited the on-premises consumption of alcohol at bars; there are no restrictions on occupancy at gyms or stores.So Florida joins the few COURAGEOUS realists. I've also added South Dakota, where Gov Noem has been equally firm and clear from the start. I probably should have put her on the map earlier. 7/9 update: Florida is still holding SOLID, and now adding a SOLID MANDATE to reopen schools ALL THE WAY in the fall. More Bravo!
