Mosquitos are gathering in the state of Florida. As the number of malaria cases in Florida increases, reports that two vacancies related to combating the spread of diseases have not been filled for several months. The latest report from the Florida Health Department’s virus monitoring reveals that two additional cases of the mosquito-borne virus were detected in Sarasota County, south of Tampa, between June 25 and July 1. This brings the total number of diseases contracted inside the U.S. to six this year, with counties such as Sarasota, Manatee, and Miami-Dade now under alert. The fact that the malaria infections were discovered locally marks the first time in two decades that the virus has been contracted in the U.S. instead of internationally.

No surprise to see the GOP is doing big things in Florida and doing their best to bring malaria to the masses.
