Its been discussed here in several threads. Theyll add several days worth of deaths on Friday. This was a way for DeSantis to keep it out of the daily headlines. Theyre seeing 230 deaths a day right now and its going up fast. Worst its been in FL the whole pandemic.

They attribute a lot of Covid deaths to cardiac failure, respiratory failure, etc.
The bullshit flows from the top.
