An overwhelming majority of likely Florida voters surveyed during the last five days in August by Data For Progress — 73% — said school districts should be allowed to require masks. Just 25% disagreed. With the coronavirus pandemic the overriding issue of the day, Floridians are divided over DeSantis’ performance: 45% approved, 52% disapproved. Among Democrats, 83% disapproved of DeSantis’ performance while 75% of Republicans approved. There is also great intensity in peoples’ views, with 72% of Democrats strongly disapproving and 54% of Republicans strongly approving of the governor’s performance.
Among independents, the numbers weren’t nearly so lopsided: 38% approving and 56% disapproving.
The results are in line with the Quinnipiac Poll. It found 51% of Florida voters disapproved and 46% approved of DeSantis’ handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The poll surveyed people sitting inside the union office at Broward County School Board offices.

Yes, and 75% once thought that slavery was ok. How do you explain the numbers coming from England? Fewer than 1 in 100 students and staff in England tested positive for Covid in June with no mask mandate in their schools. That wasn't just a noticeable difference from last autumn, it also came as Delta cases were peaking across not just England, but the whole of the United Kingdom. The data comes from a study by the UK's Office for National Statistics that showed infection rates were lower in children attending school than in the greater population. An estimated .27% of elementary school students, .42% of middle to high school students, and .27% of teachers tested positive for Covid between June 14th and July 6th. This is compared with autumn 2020 when 1% of elementary school students and staff tested positive, while 1.22% of high school students and 1.64% of staff tested positive. What happened to following the science? Such a shame that mask wearing has been turned into a political issue in the US regardless of the fact that Fauci himself said that masks do nothing but make the wearer feel better about themselves.
