Florida continues to report fewer new cases of the Chinese coronavirus than New York State, despite the absence of lockdowns or a statewide mask mandate, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data shows.
The CDC's March 19 data shows Florida reporting 143.5 cases per 100,000, or 30,820 cases total, in the last seven days.
Both areas, taken separately, exceed Florida in new cases per capita in the last seven days.
New York State, excluding the city, reported 212.1 cases per 100,000, or 23,450 cases total, in the last seven days.
New York City has reported 238 cases per 100,000, or 19,985 cases, in the same time period.
New York State has reported over 12,600 more cases than Florida in the last seven days alone.
Critics have continued to batter the Florida governor for refusing to embrace long-lasting lockdown measures, despite the data suggesting Florida's coronavirus policy has not led to greater case spread. DeSantis Thursday, flanked by experts who praised the tactics his state embraced in response to the virus, also took a hardline stance against the prospect of vaccine passports, vowing they will not be used in the Sunshine State.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
