These neighborhoods also coincidentally happen to be where the most elderly populations reside. Yes, older people tend to vote more Republican. Basically the scandal is that DeSantis is making sure the most at-risk populations get vaccinated.

Yes, DeSantis could have been less dismissive and left out the shot about complaints, but the whole scandal is just another smear by the press that has spent a year smearing him and getting things wrong. Governors getting needles in arms of elderly are doing their jobs.
Florida has more seniors than most states and is doing a relatively good job getting them vaccinated. That’s the goal.
But the press can’t drop their DeSantis obsession so they constantly look for an angle to make him doing his job into a scandal.

The real scandals are the states not getting vaccines to the elderly, wasting vaccines because of bueraceacy, or prioritizing things like teachers that won’t go back to work over the elderly. But those go under covered because these outlets have to find their DeSantis angle.
