This is the second time in two weeks that Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has virtually disappeared from public view since the election, has chosen to bypass reporters questions and instead issue a video message delivered on the states emergency operations alert system as well as his email platform.The alert system set up by state emergency managers to send Floridians urgent public health and safety text messages was activated Wednesday, but it wasnt an emergency.
It was used to deliver a three-minute video message from Gov. Ron DeSantis that repeated what Floridians had previously learned from news reports that vaccines and therapeutics were headed to Florida hospitals within weeks.
Recording from his desk in the Capitol, DeSantis acknowledged that the early doses of therapeutic drugs and vaccines will have to be rationed but, as he has done for weeks, he offered no explanation as to who decides who gets the first doses and what criteria is being used.

And has a background green screen.
No...a governor would never do that...especially a righteous Southern Governor.

(16,616 posts)3. DeSantis can't justify his recent actions, of prohibiting mayors from
instituting mandatory mask policies. He simply can't answer that question, so he's hiding.
I feel terrible for our Florida DUers. That guy is right there with South Dakota's governor in terms of reckless disregard for human life.
