Something to understand what nurses think about re the Current News and their opinions!

Ron DeSantis!

DeSantis's wife has breast cancer. Very sorry to hear it. Hope she gets better soon. 

However, let's see if he's going to ignore the Drs recommendations as he did for COVID? 

Bet you, using tax payers dollars he will spare no costs!

facebook, Instagram, others hit by global outage

Should we wager on whether this was sabotage and if it was an inside job? Is interesting that it follows the widespread realization that facebook leadership has not been honest with investors or the public.

Very low-class of you.  Not surprised, though.

I'd have to agree that using his wife's illness to take a dig at him is low class.

First of all it's doubtful he has liberal use of tax dollars for his wife's healthcare anymore than I do.  I am sure he has healthcare both provided by the state and of which he pays premiums and getting her healthcare will not be an issue.  

As far as the connection to covid, it means he and his wife have the freedom of choice on how to proceed rather than have that dictated by the government.  He also has been an advocate for the treatment of covid and the vaccine and has not advocated  quackery.  Certainly is stance on freedom over prevention and mitigation had dire results but that's also the fault and ignorance of the populace of Florida.

You are well qualified to judge low class, so I am not surprised. 

Did you see that I wished her well and the remonstration was towards her mass murdering husband?

You seriously cannot be defending DeSantis? 

After what he's done to Floridians? 

Teachers, children, the elderly, voter suppression etc. I'm very surprised at you Tweety.

I'm looking at him realistically and not giving in to left wing rhetoric.

I'm pretty sure the survivors of all the people who died are looking at him realistically as well and feel very graciously towards his compassionate responses and how he handled the crisis. Possibly, a good yardstick might be the school districts that ignored his orders or the left wing courts that struck him down. 

But all that's political in the arena of life and death!

Well, they don't call him "DeathSantis" for nothing.

Which is my point. Even a broken clock is right twice daily. And it might appear that DeSantis might sometimes get stuff right, but his nature is that of a sociopath. 

If the first reaction isn't empathy and is superseded by convenience or selfishness, then there's personality disorders present. And entirely too many republicans fall into that camp.

I so agree with this.  DeSantis's lack of action, in speech and deeds, spread Covid.  He may have not thought that but he considered it more important to keep Trump's approval  than he did to advocate for his citizens.  He demonstrated no courage, decision making prowess or decency.  I think his plan was to get the old folk vaccinated and the younger people could fend for themselves without any caution measures.  That would keep his older people alive  and the young would be less likely to die.  That way he could keep crowds in bars, restaurants, rallies, etc. with a lower number of deaths.  It was a calculated decision that cost a lot of younger people to die.
