Literally zero of that was political.
But responses could easily head that way.

Listen I don't agree with a lot of it (there'd be a bloodbath if someone came to take my pets), but allowing it to spread and kill potentially millions can't be permitted.

There are not just two choices.

There are to China. They don't do half measures.

Perhaps I was not clear. Their reaction is NOT better than underreacting as you suggest. If the choice is between their extreme measures (extreme not being an exaggeration, but maybe an understatement) and something else, I take something else every single time.
"A federal judge in Florida has voided the national mask mandate covering airplanes and other public transportation as exceeding the authority of U.S. health officials.
The decision Monday by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle in Tampa also said the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention improperly failed to justify its decision and did not follow proper rulemaking.
The CDC recently extended the mask mandate, which was set to expire on April 18, until May 3 to allow more time to study the BA.2 omicron subvariant of the coronavirus that is now responsible for the vast majority of cases in the U.S.
The mask requirement for travelers was the target of months of lobbying from the airlines, which sought to kill it. The carriers argued that effective air filters on modern planes make transmission of the virus during a flight highly unlikely. Republicans in Congress also fought to kill the mandate.
Critics have seized on the fact that states have rolled back rules requiring masks in restaurants, stores and other indoor settings, and yet COVID-19 cases have fallen sharply since the omicron variant peaked in mid-January."

Whoa. So what’s this mean in practice ?"A federal judge in Florida has voided the national mask mandate covering airplanes and other public transportation as exceeding the authority of U.S. health officials.

Probably nothing when the Feds appeal and get a stay on the void until the Appellate Court makes a decision.
More fights on planes for the next few days while the implication is worked out.
As operations adjusts (or doesn't) fast enough vs what some people would like.

I would like to know if the ruling says with immediate effect.

Probably doesn't matter.
Right now, there's someone sitting in a terminal who read the headline alert and nothing else. Using that information, they'll state with complete confidence and authority that they no longer have to wear a mask on the flight they're about to board.
Flight operation will obviously not have reacted this fast, no matter what's in the actual rulling.

Its basically that its found to exceed their legal authority that that is violates the process for agency rulemaking.
Wait to see what the fifth circuit says.

What does it mean when it says "remands it to the CDC"?
