Mayor Gimenez of Miami-Dade County, the state leader in COVID-19 has weakly followed the lead of the state and federal government.

The University of Miami is opening its campus in the City of Coral Gables, which will surely add to local community Covid infections.

There is evidence that Governor DeSantis wants to keep POTUS happy and Mayor Gimenez, Miami-Dade County, wants to keep the governor happy.

Citizens cannot count on state and local governments to prioritize health safety now or in there future compared to political and business owners’ interests.
