Exodus to Florida: Gov Desantis says anyone entering the state must be quarantined for 14 days after 'huge amount' of New Yorkers and New Jersey residents fled the states amid coronavirus outbreak

Florida's Governor Ron Desantis announced that he will require coronavirus testing of all air travelers arriving in his state from the New York City region after a 'huge amount' of people, who were given stay at home orders, began showing up in his state.

Desantis, speaking at a news conference on Monday in Sumter County, noted that there are more than 190 direct flights from New York's airports, which includes Newark Liberty across the river in New Jersey.

He also speculated that 'every flight has someone on it that is positive for COVID-19.'

I with you. Spells trouble. As if isn't already a pain to have New Yorks invade Florida. They won't stay long - won't be able to stand the heat.
