KKKemp is doubling down on the stupid and evil.

It’s also being broadcast on GA Public Radio.

He is appalling.

Right now, COVID-19 is tearing through Georgia. The number of deaths is trending back up and hospitalizations are climbing. July has brought a record number of cases and a new fight for life in our hospitals.
More than 131,000 people in Georgia have tested positive for the virus, and more than a third of those were in the month of July alone - 49,984.
Testing has increased this summer but not at the same rate. The age of those diagnosed has changed. Young people between the ages 18-29 now represent the greatest share of cases. This is a change from the beginning of the virus in Georgia when most cases were among the elderly.

As cases surged, so has the politics around the virus. Kemp has not issued a mask mandate, instead opting to encourage people to wear masks. Cities across the state have gone a step further by issuing their own mask mandates and more strict restrictions on businesses. As a response, Kemp sued the City of Atlanta.
