Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis hit back Saturday at New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo over a possible coronavirus quarantine for visitors, asking that he โnot quarantine any Floridians in nursing homes.โ
In a rare Saturday news conference, DeSantis, a Republican, made reference to a now-adjusted policy that Cuomo, a Democrat, had pushed, which allowed nursing homes to admit COVID-19 patients despite how vulnerable the elderly population has been to the virus. DeSantis was an outspoken critic of the decision: in his state, nursing homes refused to admit residents who had tested positive.
โI think governors are going to do what they need to do,โ DeSantis said. โI would just ask them if thatโs done, just please do not quarantine any Floridians in the nursing homes in New York.โ
Over 6,200 elderly residents may have died from COVID-19 in New York nursing homes, state health department statistics showed โ a figure that sparked criticism against Cuomo.
The comment from DeSantis follows Cuomoโs suggestion that New York may instate a mandatory two-week quarantine for any visitors from other states, specifically naming Florida.

According to Atlantaโs interim police chief, race was not a factor in the fatal shooting of Rayshard Brooks. During a recent interview, Chief Rodney Bryant said his officers are the best in the nation and emphasized Brookโs death had nothing to do with diversity.
This came after Garrett Rolfe, the officer who shot Brooks, was charged with felony murder.
The Atlanta Police Department has faced a grave drop in morale amid national turmoil sparked by the death of George Floyd.
โYou have to understand that weโve been in this space for about three weeks now, where officers are working 12 ยฝ hour shifts, sometimes even more, being out on the front line, being yelled at, spat upon and items thrown at them. At some point, people get tired. I recognize that.โ โ Rodney Bryant, interim Police Chief of the Atlanta Police Department
Bryant has said he is confident the police department will continue to move forward and the number of officers calling off work will go back to normal.
