It's all relative. Yes, DeSantis was pro-vaccine early on and even pro-lockdown for a while. The key point is that he CHANGED his views as evidence became available. Another person who did this is ... Steve Kirsch. Tucker Carlson didn't speak out enough against the lockdowns and vaccines early on .... but he also changed his tune and quickly made up for his earlier errors or silence by putting himself out there by himself as a vocal critic. I think I'm the only person who must have read those recent letters DeSantis has sent to the FDA and CDC, which make clear that DeSantis (and his surgeon general) are now big-time skeptics of the vaccines. In fact, they are taking on the FDA and CDC on this issue.

I could contrast DeSantis to my state's Republican governor, who castigated the "unvaccinated" and kept us in lockdowns far longer than DeSantis.

Why are so many people moving to Florida if DeSantis is so awful?
