Florida breaks record with more than 21,000 new COVID cases
Florida reported 21,683 new cases of COVID-19, the state’s highest one-day total
since the start of the pandemic, according to federal health data released
Saturday, as its theme park resorts again started asking visitors to wear
masks indoors.
The state has become the new national epicenter for the virus, accounting for
around a fifth of all new cases in the U.S. as the highly contagious delta
variant of the coronavirus continues to spread.

Florida Gov. DeSantis signs executive order making masks in schools optional
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said he will sign an executive order to issue emergency rules for "protecting the rights of parents," making face masks optional across the state in schools and leaving it up to parents.
The governor made the announcement Friday in Cape Coral at an Italian restaurant, where he also presented parents who oppose masks.
Apparently, to "pro-life" types like DeSantis, life itself is optional.
Masks are mostly for those around you, so if you want to live in society,
1. Wear a damn mask for the folks around you.
2. Get vaccinated for yourself.
Otherwise, walk out to the desert, find your rock, and crawl back under it.
