Three years after President Donald Trump announced a set of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines that implemented “15 days to slow the spread” of COVID-19, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said on March 16 that government officials are “still clinging” to failed policies that were enacted during the pandemic.
DeSantis told reporters that multiple problems that currently exist are a result of how the federal government and many state governments responded to the pandemic.
