Florida vs. Vermont proves Lockdowns Work

There’s a lot of Florida vs. California stories going around to “prove” that lockdowns don’t work. It’s really all about cherry picking your data. So I’ll cherry pick mine!

In Florida, Gov. DeSantis opened the state back up in September.

In Vermont, Gov. Scott tightened measures in the fall.

How’d that work out?

Unemployment rate:

• Vermont: 3.2%
• Florida: 4.8%
