I know, right? On the graphic that I posted, above, of the top 20 states ranked by number of pandemic deaths, only six are so-called blue states. It would appear that the (R) way of dealing with it by ignoring it was not particularly a successful one for their citizens.
Lets say Florida falls to "just" a few thousand deaths per month, for a few months, and then rises up to 10,000 deaths per month again... Even the low is very bad.
