Gov. Ron DeSantis was in St. Petersburg to discuss red tide on Wednesday, but took time to answer questions and address Florida’s recent spike in coronavirus cases and stress the importance of the COVID vaccine.
“Here’s, I think, the most important thing with the data: if you are vaccinated, fully vaccinated, the chance of you getting seriously ill or dying from COVID is effectively zero,” DeSantis said. “If you look at the people who are being admitted to hospitals, over 95 percent of them are either not fully vaccinated or not vaccinated at all. These vaccines are saving lives. They are reducing mortality.”
The governor said he’s been urging people to get vaccinated for months because of what he called the “summer season.”...
While DeSantis stressed the importance and efficacy of the vaccine, he also warned against government officials pushing vaccination too hard.
“They have different reasons for why they don’t take it and I think the more they’re hectored by government officials or some of these folks – that is not going to get them to ‘yes.’ I can tell you that right now,” he said. “I think these are folks that have skepticism of authorities. I think they have different reasons why they may not do it. I don’t think most of them think COVID is a hoax or anything. I think they understand.”

Buried a gal today who JUST got the jab. No questions asked...they said she died of diabetes? Wonder why no one is questioning when they get people visiting doctors and someone might SUSPECT that some of the people suffering maladies are reacting to the jab.
I might believe and trust any politician or medical expert that publicly endorses early covid treatment with HCQ or ivermectin
Crickets…..
Coronavirus in Israel: What do we know about the 143 hospitalized people? Of the 143 hospitalized patients, 58% were vaccinated, 39% were not at all, and 3% were partially vaccinated.
Are mandatory shots coming? Kinda makes you wonder.....
It is insanely irresponsible to take the jab if one is not in a high risk group for covid.
BS

But more importantly, what is the overall healthiness of the person?
This flu is mostly zapping those who have health issues.
They always start with ‘Vaccines are saving lives’. Scotland had 5200 vaccinated die in 4 weeks in a population of 331,000
My tinfoil wants to know if everyone who shows up at a hospital saying they’re not vaxed is admitted. The policy would be consistent with the thinking, and self-supporting, too.
And:
“15 of the 20 who died this month were fully vaccinated.”
Go figure.
I am greatly disappointed in DeSantis. Just another GOP politician who buys into the liberal narrative.
Scotland’s population is 5.4 million.
How many have been dumped off in your state DeSantis?
Trump said the same thing, are you disappointed in him, too?
We know that on January 15th, before the vaccine drive in Israel, they had 2189 people hospitalized with Covid. Yesterday they had 140.
Lots, perhaps many thousands, if not millions of people, are not getting vaccinated because of Biden and Kamala and democrats in general.
Every time there is or was a new milestone in the number of people vaccinated, Biden got in front of the cameras to take credit, while ignoring the FACT that it was Trump that made it possible to get the vaccine so quickly.
I got vaccinated, but I only get angry every time Biden or Kamala or any democrat talk up the vaccines or the number of people vaccinated. They talked down the possibility of getting the vaccines within a year, and then talked them down because they got developed under Trump.
(BTW, I believe that Kamala made that trip to the hospital last Sunday, because she thought she might have been infected. But, why would she worry if she got vaccinated? I believe that she didn’t actually get vaccinated, and took a placebo injection.)
Yes
The answer from me is still no.
In the US we have 600K deaths attributed to the virus by the CDC and zero deaths attributed to the vaccine.
But I guess it makes sense to wait and see.
