ON THIS DAY
Governor Ron DeSantis announced Friday in Jacksonville that Florida would allow organized activities for children, effective immediately. In this news conference, DeSantis noted that children are much less likely to face serious consequences from the novel coronavirus. Just recently, however, it was found that children can become affected by coronavirus through the inflammatory syndrome MIS-C and, although the condition is considered rare with a low mortality rate, there is still much unknown about the syndrome.
