After leaving Florida’s beaches open for spring break and allowing the Covidiots to return home throughout the country to infect countless others, Governor DeSantis is still exhibiting a colossal failure of leadership. The third Tweet is a perfect example of why the country needs a nationwide lockdown.
Until then, forget about even thinking about sustained recovery anytime soon.
We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately. – Ben Franklin
ONE MIAMI BEACH weekend… mobile phone data shows where these beachgoers went after they dispersed and went home ➡️ basically they went all over the country. This is why beach closures is key. And why Spring break beach gatherings potentially dangerous for epidemic. #COVID19 pic.twitter.com/Budj9I76sP

This shows the location data of phones that were on a Florida beach during Spring Break. It then shows where those phones traveled.
First thing you should note is the importance of social distancing. The second is how much data your phone gives off. pic.twitter.com/iokUX3qjeB

This picture is from 3pm today.
You can see exactly where Duval County ends and St. John’s County begins.
All beaches in Duval are closed, while St. John’s only blocked parking at the beach.
Gov. DeSantis needs to order a state-wide closure of all Florida beaches. pic.twitter.com/JfKzCGCPLq
