JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A day after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the Biden administration’s policy requiring health care workers to get vaccinated, the governor’s office fired back saying Florida will not enforce it, News 6 partner WJXT-TV reported.
The rule comes as the health care worker vaccination rule approaches a deadline -- Jan. 27 for their first shot. Thursday’s ruling from the Supreme Court now means health care workers across the U.S. will be required to get vaccinated for COVID-19.

Hours before the ruling came down, Gov. Ron DeSantis reiterated that it will not be enforced in the Sunshine State.
“The medical mandate for the nurses and doctors what they’re trying to do is insane. In Florida, we provided protections, so they were rehired,” said DeSantis.

Applauding this!
Hoping more states follow so it won't be Florida alone, facing the # storm that is brewing together currently on a federal level and going to rain down on them soon.

Red states have not problem allowing the workers in the state chose what they want to do with their bodies, in comparison the Hell holes democrats states are forcing their citizens to do what they are told or lose their job.
Democrats really love Americans and care for their workers.
But then wants their nurses to come to work sick with covid anyway.
