TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Florida reported 10,109 new cases of COVID-19 on Thursday, breaking the state’s one-day record again as leaders work to prevent further spread over the July 4 holiday weekend.

The previous record for a single day was 9,585 cases reported Saturday.

169,106 confirmed cases, according to the latest data released by the health department. (Fatality numbers have not yet been released. Check back for updates.)

On Wednesday, as Miami-Dade reached 1,000 deaths from the virus, Mayor Carlos Gimenez announced a countywide mask mandate — both indoors and out — and set special guidelines for the holiday weekend and earlier closings for restaurants nightly.

Broward County also strengthened its mask rules and ordered onsite dining to close in the overnight hours.

Mind blowing.

1. Drumpf Junior

The Governor is an idiot like his messiah, Drumpf. I still can not believe this country has no national policy.

3. We DO have a national policy.

"Every man and woman for themselves!

Good luck out there!"

Is it a SANE national policy? No.

But it is our national policy nonetheless.

9. Sad but true

And that is why we are a pariah to the rest of the world.

2. It's only beginning too. Soon they will top 20,000 a day.

Just watch.

4. And that dumb ass governor was crowing a little while back about...

how Florida wasn't New York and had handled it much better than Cuomo did.

5. We're No. 1!

Desantist leads Florida to a new all-time high.

Still no state-wide order for masks. Trump passed operations to the States, Desantis transferred it to the counties who are leaving it to the cities. That is leadershit Republican style!

6. Watching DeSantis news conferences is painful.

He is combating and self-congratulatory. You can tell he has no plan and he is leaving it to the local mayors to handle this problem.
Sounds a lot like Trump.

Florida is screwed and probably take US down with it.

7. Trump's mission accomplished moment comes at great expense.

Fuck Trump and his deceptive jobs report. Lives come first - whether it's in Florida or Afghanistan.

8. Holy shit

That’ll be like 1/5 of the daily total. Unless the total spikes over 60k.
