Jesus God, Boiler, you're stupid. The coronavirus does not test an area for its politics before infecting it.
There is one factor that has affected the severity of outbreaks. In states with Republican governors, such as Arizona, Texas, and Florida, those governors PREVENTED mayors from implementing basic safety measures in their cities.
The difference between Republican and Democratic leadership in this crisis is that Democrats have wanted to slow the outbreak, while Republicans want to please Trump.
So give me "liberal" governance every time during a pandemic.
When did the Florida governor turn over authority to the counties?

Never. Those decisions are usually made at the city level, anyway (unless the governor tries to stop them, like De Santis did).
