Why? Largely due to Pox Views and their Governor downplaying both vaccines and the virus. While the hardest hit areas are those with low vax rates, it's also happening in areas with high vax rates among the unvaxxed. According to this story:
Prof Peter Hotez MD PhD:
"On June 22 Florida Gov DeSantis and our colleague, Laura Ingraham, mocked me on Fox for predicting the return of COVID19 to the Southern US. As of today, Florida has the 2nd highest rate of Covid nationally +257% rise over last 14 days, with Jacksonville area among worst affected.
"Laura said I just 'couldn’t let the pandemic go,' when in fact her news network worked overtime to discredit vaccines and weaponize health communication to suppress vaccination rates in the South. In so doing they facilitated a COVID19 resurgence in the face of the delta variant."
