I have a runny nose and sneezing. That is it and nothing else. I hate that in the back of my mind I feel like A. I need to find out it I have some sort of Covid and B. If I walk out my front door I’ll be jeopardizing someone else heath. This never was the case three to four years ago. We went about it lives being sick. The media is making us feel like we must take these test to be normal or even healthy.

TRUTH IS OR TRUTH BE TOLD. YOU DO NOT NEED A DOCTOR/DOCTORS TO TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE SICK. ITS YOUR BODY, YOU SHOULD KNOW HOW YOU FEEL SICK OR NOT. STAY HOME AND STAY AWAY FROM LOVE ONES IF DONT FEEL SO WELL. 🙏❤️😷

These long waits and long lines tells me that this virus is NO EXCUSE for anyone to not be able to vote in person. Democrats are gonna be mad.

I like to test every morning and afternoon since they won't let me have anymore boosters. Does anyone want to sale a booster ?

Well what do you guys expect with so many anti vaxers, anti science and anti mask people? I love florida and hope you keep things under control.
