Florida’s main teacher’s union on Monday sued Governor Ron DeSantis and other authorities to stop schools from reopening in August, as the state has become a US epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The lawsuit calls on DeSantis, state education commissioner Richard Corcoran and the mayor of Miami county to desist “from unnecessarily and unconstitutionally forcing millions of public-school students and employees to report to unsafe brick and mortar schools.” He also said that he would have no problem sending his kids to school — if he had school-age children.The situation is so dire that DeSantis pleaded for COVID-19 survivors to donate blood plasma to help save lives, as supplies of antiviral drugs run short.
“There are people that had this with no symptoms a month or two ago that will have antibodies that can be used for this,” the Republican governor said.
