This is what is happening in Lake Worth in Palm Beach County, Florida. City leaders yelling and accusations of city officials turning off residents' power during a pandemic. (45 cases in Palm Beach County) pic.twitter.com/bwOYKuEzm5โ Brian Entin (@BrianEntin) March 21, 2020
Just spoke with a county employee in Palm Beach, FL who is very distressed. The person believes he/she was exposed to coronavirus and has self-quarantined, but the county refuses to allow work-from-home: person is being forced to use PTO/sick time. What say you, @GovRonDeSantis?
