Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) referred to his state as a waiting room for seniors who will soon die.
The Florida governor made the remarks at a coronavirus briefing on Sunday after noting that some nursing home patients had been infected by asymptomatic COVID-19 carriers.
Florida is ground zero for the nursing home, were Gods waiting room, he explained. We have a huge number of facilities, a huge number of residents.
DeSantis went on to brag that the state has only 1.2 coronavirus deaths per 100,000 nursing home residents.
