Our Florida Governor needs to take a stance to close down our airports to any non essential personnel coming into Florida. Fact - I have New York State acquaintances that are off work making a beeline to come here for the warmth and less stringent quarantine policies. Also consider most of these New York flights originate from the New York City area which is the highest hot spot in the nation. I have personally told friends that just arrived from New York our house is not open to anyone that was just on an airplane.
What constitutes non-essential people? How does the governor of Florida control who gets on an airplane in New York, Chicago or whatever city you want to name?
