I assume this is directed at me and my reply .....
1. I was not born in Florida.
2. I was a snowbird for several years before deciding to live here full time.
3. I have absolutely no problem with snowbirds, or as I prefer to call my friends ... seasonal residents, that is their choice. I will be socializing with my seasonal resident friends after they have been back for at least three weeks with no signs of the virus.
My concern is with a loved one who cannot afford to get this virus. We take every precaution to avoid getting this virus. We socially distance, always wear a mask and this particular person never, ever goes into a store with me. Unfortunately, we will have to live this way until the virus disappears or a vaccine is available.
I am aware that when residents return from their summer homes cases of colds and flu escalate in TV. I would request that you wear a mask and practice social distancing when you return.
