Dr. Vinay Prasad, a self-professed Bernie supporter, recently did a video [1] on DeSantis' COVID policy. His conclusion was that DeSantis was among one of the top governors in the country, and "near the top" of all the political leaders in the world.
The video discusses vaccination policy, mask mandates, school reopenings, and death rates. The TLDR is that policies that different governments enacted did not seem to have much impact on death rates, and that therefore what was given up (in terms of closed schools/businesses/etc.) was somewhat in vain. I think he should have spent a little time on non-death impacts, such as long COVID, which seem to be more prevalent in people who got COVID pre-vaccine.
