In encounters during 2019 and 2020, Gaetz and Greenberg instructed the women to meet at certain times and places, often at hotels around Florida, and would tell them the amount of money they were willing to pay, according to the messages and interviews nytimes.com/2021/04/01/us/…
Some of the men and women took ecstasy before having sex, including Gaetz, two people familiar with the encounters said. In some cases, Gaetz asked women to help find others who might be interested in having sex with him and his friends

Dr. Raul Pino, the health administrator in Orlando, Fla., said that two young women "dressed up as grannies" tried to get their second coronavirus vaccine doses on Wednesday. They wore bonnets, gloves and glasses, he said: "I don't know how they escaped the first time."
The women were probably in their 20s, Pino said. They had valid CDC vaccination cards, but "there were some issues with their ID's" and driver's licenses.
There have been a "few" cases of people faking vaccine eligibility, Pino said, including one man who shared a name with his father: "It's probably higher than we suspect."

Stay-at-home orders have nearly halted travel for most Americans, but people in Florida, the Southeast and other places that waited to enact such orders have continued to travel widely, potentially exposing more people as the outbreak accelerates. nytimes.com/interactive/20…

Sheriff Chad Chronister of Hillsborough County, Fla., says he has obtained an arrest warrant for Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne of The River at Tampa Bay Church for holding large services and "intentionally and repeatedly" disregarding orders to avoid large gatherings.
"His reckless disregard for human life put hundreds of people in his congregation at risk and thousands of residents who may interact with them this week in danger," Chronister says.
Chronister says the authorities advised the church's lawyers that they would be endangering people by violating social distancing and stay at home orders. The sheriff sent members of his command staff to the church to convey the same message but the pastor refused to meet them.
