That's just so much bullshit. Brain eating amoeba can't live in Florida, they'd starve.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

It seems that the covid-19 does really well in Florida. They should study there to find out what makes the Floridans so attractive to it, and thus maybe find a way to stop it by eliminating the attraction in normal people.

There is evidence it causes brain damage. Maybe that's easier to do in Florida?

That is a distinct possibility. Everything is air conditioned. We know A/C is a big contributor to Legionnaire's disease, I see no reason it wouldn't be the same for corona.

People are fucking crazy out there. Last week almost 100% of people out in the stores had masks on. Now that the city has passed a mandatory mask ordinance it's only about 50%. FREEDUM! I saw this old guy and a young woman almost come to blows in the grocery store because she wasn't wearing a mask and was walking the wrong way down the aisle. They were literally screaming "FUCK YOUUUUUUU!" at each other in the middle of the goddamn store.

We only are compelled wear masks in public transport but of course being Dutch a large minority raise the middle finger. The supermarket has returned to its old ways but people always avoided each other.

I want someone to say something about my wearing a mask. I'll say "it's to keep you from kissing me after you suck my dick".

Mickey waved from a distance and visitors wore colourful face masks with mouse ears on the weekend as Florida's Walt Disney World reopened to the public even as the state shattered the United States' record for the largest single-day increase in positive coronavirus cases.

Florida's Department of Health statistics on Sunday (local time) said another 15,299 people had tested positive — pushing the total number of cases to 269,811 — and 45 patients died.

If Florida were a country, it would rank fourth in the world for the most new cases a day behind the US, Brazil and India.

America should split up. The United States are far from united.

That would present all sorts of opportunities for complex military actions between warring states, alliances, betrayals and general mayhem. A modern Game of Thrones...
