Florida Mayors Heckled at the Beach While Announcing More Stay-at-Home Rules

It's Fourth of July weekend, and restless patriots want to finally get out of their houses and go to the beach. But they'll have no such luck in Florida's Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Palm Beach County Mayor Dave Kerner said it would be highly irresponsible to open the beaches, while Broward Mayor Dale V.C. Holness argued it was imperative to keep people safe, considering any open beaches have the potential to draw people from other counties.

This is not something we are taking lightly,” Holness said. “We don’t like taking away the freedom of people to go to the beach. But if we don’t do this, we are going to lose lives.”

If you want an indication about how residents felt about that announcement, just listen to the mayors' Monday press conference, where they unveiled the official order.

...

cases may be rising across the country, but the death rate is not.

Is it possible that people reached through contact tracing are being counted as “probable” cases? Maryland has hired over ONE THOUSAND contact tracers. They might be effective in the very early stages of a pandemic, but when there are over a million cases, I am not so sure.

Maryland just doing its part to keep the elevated (though increasingly irrational) fear, distrust, depression and anger going to the first Tuesday in November ... all for the good of “public health”, doncha know!

The “He’s a liar” shouted at the mayor as he was talking is pretty funny.
These idiots never expect the serfs to complain.

[who knows what evil?]

Jesus Christ, Vitamins A, C, D3, K1, K2 and some Zinc...good to go; let’s hit the beach!

[livius]

No they don’t. But that’s what the masks are all about...just in case.

Broward County now loves to take freedoms away from its people. Color it RED as in MARXIST.

Partner, it has been explained to a lot of folks that the virus has very mild symptoms versus what was being experienced earlier in the year.

The number of cases is going up simply because we have more testing being done for this virus.

It may be that folks that come into contact with a person who has mild symptoms are being counted as probable cases of the virus.

I would not doubt that contact cases are being counted and probably the idea of Fauci and Birx since they are way overpaid in what they do every single day of the year.
