Ah the total dishonesty of the Republican policiticians. As soon as you start cherry picking your statistics in such a careful way, it's because you want the numbers to confirm something that simply is not true.
Florida and New York both have a similar number of daily cases over the past week, 86,000 daily cases in New York, 77,000 cases in Florida. Florida has 2 million more people. But Florida has more deaths than New York, and fewer vaccinated people. 65% in Florida to 71% in New York.
New York had more deaths for a long, long time because it got hit first - before they were tests or treatments., but Florida tried harder and caught up - even though they had 6 months to prepare and there were lots of tests and treatments by the time it hit.
DeSantis had to be truly negligent to have gone for 6 months with no cases, and then be so ill prepared when it arrived. De Santis should have had half deaths of the states who got hit early. With a population that is a little over half that of Canada, you have 85% more cases than we do, and more than twice the number of deaths. DeSantis currently has 77,000 cases per day, while Canada has a little over 50,000 cases per day.
Once again, Florida's population is 55% that of Canada, but you have 85% more infections, and more than twice the number of deaths.
