Rick Scott may be a piece of shit, but across the street from the nursing home was a functioning hospital.

Yeah, nice try - WHY THE FUCK WERE THEY IN THEIR NURSING HOME?
I love how the gov asked about this, and there is no answer. There were ample opportunities to leave, they were evacuating people, they were WARNING people that there would be no help for up to 72 hours. WTF were they thinking?
