SW Florida in trouble

Things are heating up in SW Florida. And beaches will remain open allowing East coasters to come over to use beaches on West coast over the 4th!

And there are not enough ICU beds available in the county as it is! You guys have some the best beaches up there- Sanibel, Marco, Captiva etc- but this is the worst possible time for them to be open. Good luck and stay safe snowybirdie.

What about all the innocent people who are working because they have to and these idiots infect them? That's why I have nothing but disdain for non-mask wearers, they are willing to kill others for their own idiocy. Deplorable isn't nearly bad enough, heartless, self-important, idiotic, narcissistic assholes only gets close.
