DeSantis slams Biden's idea of reinstating lockdowns as 'insane,' vows no more shutdowns in Florida Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis blasted President Joe Biden's threat of potentially reinstating coronavirus shutdowns. DeSantis promised that he would not put the Sunshine State back in coronavirus pandemic lockdowns.
During Biden's address to the nation on the one-year anniversary of the start of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, the president warned that the United States could reestablish shutdowns if Americans "don't stay vigilant."
"Unity is what we do together as fellow Americans, because if we don't stay vigilant and the conditions change, then we may have to reinstate restrictions to get back on track," Biden said on Thursday.
"Please, we don't want to do that again. We've made so much progress," Biden added. "This is not the time to let up, just as we were emerging from a dark winter into a hopeful spring and summer is not the time to not stick with the rules."
DeSantis, who was one of the first U.S. governors to reopen his state, bashed Biden's notion of reinstating lockdown measures.
"To even contemplate doing any type of lockdown, honestly it's insane," DeSantis said during a press conference in Florida.
DeSantis then promised the residents and businesses that he would not close the state because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"That's not gonna happen in the state of Florida," the Republican governor of Florida said. "We're gonna continue doing what works, but under no circumstances would we entertain anything of the sort."..............
