Gov. Ron DeSantis stood behind his controversial decision to set up a Lakewood Ranch vaccine pop-up clinic that only serves residents of two wealthy ZIP codes, responding to complaints of favoritism by threating to send vaccines elsewhere next time.
“If Manatee County doesn’t like us doing this then we are totally fine with putting this in counties that want it and we’re totally happy to do that,” DeSantis said of the complaints. “So anyone that’s saying that, let us know, if you want us to send it to Sarasota next time or Charlotte or Pasco or wherever, let us know; we’re happy to do it.”
