Cool. I'm glad untreated communicable diseases illegal immigrants have can't spread to citizens.

Yeah ... so looking forward to revisiting polio, whooping cough/pertussis, german measles, etc.
Oh, and all the new/old viruses that we'll be facing when the permafrost completely collapses across the northern hemisphere.
It's on purpose. They want to brand immigrants as disease carriers. You can look to the Nazis to see what's next
Reminds me of the beginning of the pandemic when he tried to dismiss the initial uptick in covid cases as a migrant worker problem.
Conservatives: This is how the zombie apocalypse starts... With one person refusing to let medical professionals know about their problem.
I'd use a very real scenario of immigrants and "merely visiting" foreigners who get sick spreading any given disease (e.g. How do you think we ended up with Zika in Florida?) but I know conservatives aren't interested in reality. Even JD Vance knows that in order to get conservatives attention you need to promote fiction.
The cruelty is the point.
People are not dumb.
Just because the law doesn't require an answer now doesn't mean it won't. Immigration statuses last decades, so people have to make decisions that protect themselves through multiple administrations and changing political trends.What will the governor's office do with this information? What about the next governor? They could station agents outside hospitals with higher rates of non-citizen patients. They could change the laws protecting patient confidentiality for non-citizens, and access those records (HIPPA is a law, not a civil right). Remember when we believed that abortion care and contraception was safe forever?
These people are fixated on punishing immigrants and if we don't stop them now, they will just keep pushing the line further and further.
I’ve know since the Bush admin that my name would be on a list someday. This just makes it a little bit closer. I’m a cis white male, fwiw, and I’m still anticipating the day when my thoughts make me an enemy.
That Trauma Center sign looks traumatized
Fixing the sign would cut into the executives' yacht fund
I could see it being the intro cut scene for the Sanitarium
Ok but fr what is going on there
Type of paint they used being exposed to the elements over time have caused it to shrink and warp. You see similar things happen to houses with old paint jobs.
But why just that one? You'd think they'd replace it. Makes it look purposeful, like they were trying out a new funny font.
Remember that former Guantanamo inmates have accused DeSantis of aiding in and enjoying torture. Cruelty is the point. DeSantis and others like him simply take pleasure in making as many immigrants as possible suffer, whether they are legal or not.
