Original Note:
Misleading. Florida was one of the last states to impose any lockdown, and one of the first to reopen. There was also widespread acknowledgement and media coverage of DeSantis’ break with Fauci by July 2020. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/506867-desantis-breaks-with-fauci-says-florida-didnt-rush-reopening/ https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/trump-white-house-urged-desantis-reimplement-masking-florida Trump gave Fauci a presidential commendation on Jan 19, 2021. https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/briefings-statements/president-trump-awards-presidential-commendations-operation-warp-speed-team/ https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2023/sep/14/donald-trump/trump-said-he-doesnt-know-who-gave-fauci-a-commend/
