“We have taken a drastically different approach here in Florida to managing COVID under the leadership of Governor DeSantis,” Cammack emphasized. ‘Yes, we are seeing very, very low rates of hospitalization and death rates. For example, we have a comparable population to that of New York, and some are sturdy, but we have drastically different policies as to how we handle it. So in New York, for example, just this week, they have had 4,600 hospitalizations … on daily, and they’re averaging 60 to 70 deaths on a daily basis.

Blue states’ heavy-handed, top-down approach contrasts Florida’s common-sense handling of the pandemic, making monoclonal antibody treatments readily available for all Floridians. We can thank @GovRonDeSantis for leading with thought and pragmatism.https://t.co/MUsOtCbGDN

Compare that to Florida, where we are under 30 daily deaths, and our hospitalizations are sitting about 1,400. So, even though they are seeing the surges, it’s the approach is different among the comparable population…

“We have put a common-sense approach, thoughtful, pragmatic approach first by making sure that our first responders, that our hospitals, that our health departments and our private partners have all the resources available,’ she added. ‘Contrast that to a heavy-handed top-down approach we have seen from big government states like New York, and they are seeing higher rates of transmission, higher hospitalizations.”
