The Virus Is Deadly But He Says It Ain’t So. More Dead Ron, Ron Ron. More Dead, Ron Ron.
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — The COVID-19 death count in Florida climbed by 101 on Wednesday as the infection count hit a new one day record for the Fall — 13,164. That brings Florida’s infection count to 1,168,483 and the state’s death count to 20,305 — all while Florida Governor Ron DeSantis spent Wednesday night at a football game in Tallahassee. So we rewrote a song.
The virus is deadly but he says it ain’t so,
More dead ron-ron-ron, more dead ron-ron.
The president told him that it just won’t kill.
More dead ron-ron-ron, more dead ron-ron.
…Yeah, the victims’ heart stood still.
…Yeah, it turns out that COVID does kill.
…But the Governor says eating out is good still.
More dead ron-ron-ron, more dead ron-ron.
The positivity rate for Florida pulled back a bit for Wednesday’s test results — it’s 8.84 percent for the day.
