DeSantis appointed a mask opponent as Florida’s Surgeon General. However, the public does not agree with DeSantis on his mask views and policies.
.@GovRonDeSantis appointing Dr. Joseph Ladapo — an anti-masker and vaccine skeptic — as surgeon general is a complete slap in the face to the families of the more than 50,000 Floridians who have died from COVID.https://t.co/e0HvZQmjXZ

The new Quinnipiac poll of Florida is amazing: Large majorities reject just about everything Ron DeSantis is saying and doing to block mask mandates. Wholesale rejection. Biden and Dems must lean much harder into speaking to this neglected silent majority:https://t.co/1YH2LrFFWY

COVID infection rates are climbing.
Child infection rates are up.
School districts are rebelling against his anti-mask mandates.
Cruise lines are resisting his vaccine passport ban.
Even his poll numbers are slipping.https://t.co/0VyRFMZKyU

Do you think schools should be able to require masks for all students, or do you think parents should decide whether or not their own student will be wearing a mask?
Schools 54%
Parents 44%
(Quinnipiac U. Poll, 8/17-21/21)
Sad!
