Florida Governor Ron DeSantis weighed in Wednesday on the ongoing effort to mandate masks and vaccines in the Sunshine State, saying parents -not the government- should “make the decisions for their kids.”
“I don’t know why the masks have politics around it. Let the parents make the decision that’s best for their kids,” said the Republican.
President Joe Biden is expected to sign an Executive Order Thursday that will require COVID-19 vaccines for all federal employees in an attempt to slow the spread of the deadly Delta Variant in the United States.

'ROUTINE ERROR': 6,700 North Carolina Residents ‘Incorrectly Told They Have Coronavirus’ via Text
Nearly 7,000 residents in North Carolina were told via text message last week that they tested positive for the Coronavirus despite not actually having contracted the disease.
“More than 6,700 individuals in Mecklenburg County in North Carolina were told in a text message sent from Mecklenburg County Health Department on Friday that they tested positive for COVID-19 and over 500 people were told through a county email that they were also infected with the novel coronavirus. But the results were incorrect due to a technical error by Health Space, the company they use for contact tracing, according to a statement on the county’s website,” reports Fox News.
“An error during routine maintenance last Friday resulted in a county data vendor sending erroneous texts and email messages to people saying they were positive for COVID-19,” the statement on the county website said.
“Very quickly we began to work with the vendor to understand the issue and make sure that it did not continue. Once corrected we were told that 6,727 text messages and 541 emails were sent to individuals who were already in their system. We then worked with the vendor to send a corrected text/email to all that received the erroneous one,” the email stated in part.
