It is no secret how Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has felt about the unjustified covid measures to keep people locked down and unable to live freely without fear of persecution. In his latest push under the name “Prescribe Freedom,” DeSantis vowed to permanently ban unscientific measures by making them Florida statute in the upcoming legislative session.
DeSantis has been met with a mixture of support and animosity during the pandemic as he constantly made the news by protecting the rights of citizens in FL to not be coerced into anything that went against their bodily autonomy. Nearly two years ago, he led the way for the U.S. in banning vaccine passports. He also went toe-to-toe with some local school districts and with President Biden when the president attempted to thwart state-level authority by using funds from the Education Department to cover fines imposed on schools districts for forcing masks in schools, even though DeSantis had banned mask mandates.
Ron DeSantis Speaks at Press Conference
In a press conference on Wednesday, January 18, 2023, DeSantis shared, “Biden and his lawyers at the Department of Justice were in Federal Court in Miami trying to get, reimposed, the mask mandate for airline passengers which a district judge had struck down last year. Even after all of this, they still want to put you back in masks when you fly on a commercial airline.” He further said, “Some of these people just won’t quit.”
There are those who wish covid measures were still as strict as they were in 2020. Others never adhered to the lockdown measures at all. Many of those who got vaccinated (whether they volunteered or were forced) want things to go back to normal. It is odd that after nearly three years, multiple covid-19 strains that have become weaker with time, and science journals stating that masks are only considered a “maybe” to reduce the spread with a less than 2% chance of effectiveness, what is the motivation behind the Biden Administration continuing to restrain the American people?
Desantis is not stopping at just the masks and forced vaccines. Another section of “Prescribe Freedom” aims to protect the rights of medical professionals for their opinions, disagreeing with the narrative of medical community as a whole as well as their religious views. This would be a huge win for the medical professionals who prefer alternate methods of healing before jumping to pharmaceuticals. Over the last few years, doctors have been silenced, whistleblowers have been threatened and certain medicines have been banned to be used to fight against covid.
Florida has led the way in protecting its people from medical authoritarianism and these initiatives will make these protections a permanent feature in our laws. pic.twitter.com/pEkU2GyLQi

DeSantis has proven he wants everyone to have a voice and the freedom to express their views without the danger of losing their livelihood. He has been fighting to keep the American dream of “liberty” and “the pursuit of happiness” alive and he has no plans to stop.
