Gotta love that personal choice agenda, especially when we're fighting an unseen enemy, known as COVID. Plus, I heard that a General Willey Coyote made a call to Moderna AND Pfizer, the enemy of our enemy...

Two items to consider:
1) Florida has been an open state far longer than many other states
2) Florida, on a percentage of population basis, has one of the largest for senior citizens
Looking at the rate of death (looking only at the number of cases is deceiving as it does not account for population size) involving
Covid as of yesterday we see that per 100,000 people:
Mississippi: 308
New Jersey: 306
Louisiana: 288
New York: 281
Massachusetts: 267
Florida sits 10th at: 237
So then either the states with the top five highest rates states of death involving Covid were even more supportive of a personal choice agenda than Florida, or could it be that lockdowns and less personal choice are statistically NOT more effective in reducing death rates involving Covid?
