Texas is now in a World of Hurt

[calamity]

We warned y'all.

The state of Texas has identified 351,071 Covid-19 cases, and 4,199 deaths as of Tuesday afternoon, according to Johns Hopkins University data. On Monday, Hidalgo County reported 34 new deaths due to Covid-19 complications, and 524 new cases.

Dr. Peter Hotez of the Baylor College of Medicine said Southern states like Texas and Florida are seeing increased deaths because "the hospitals are overwhelmed."

"We had 34 deaths in the last 24 hours in not a very large county, so South Texas is just getting hit incredibly hard," Hotez said Tuesday on CNN.

I have an ex in Dallas. She sent me a text yesterday--it was the first time I heard from her in two years--asking how I am. After a little back and forth, she tells me she went in for a COVID test. Apparently, she's having the symptoms. I worry because she is about my age.

The current wife has close relatives in San Antonio. So far none of them has reported anything. But...

Also, as we saw in the other thread in this section, one of our own living in Houston tested positive. She's young. So, hopefully she will be OK.

It's infuriating because we all said, "Hey! This is serous!"

But, the gaslighters all knew better. And, they have been relentless in their denials led, of course, by their President. Well, now what, Geniuses?

I hope that all of the folks you're concerned with get well or stay well.

What is it that you would have liked to have seen implemented that you feel would have prevented anyone from contracting this virus?

Continued social distancing, mask usage, earlier testing and contact tracing...you know, pretty much the exact opposite of what Trump, Abbot and DeSantis did, all three rushing to open and ignore..

Is that how failure gets excused? “And.... ???”

Perhaps taking it seriously from the beginning and acting swiftly instead of pretending it isn't real for months. Most of the countries who did that are already back to work and have had much less economic damage and deaths than the US.

There's still 1/3rd of the country that believes the virus is a liberal conspiracy to make Trump look bad and that masks hurt more than they help. :roll:

He’s pretty much incapable of being concerned for anyone but himself. He’d love to see more Texas Covid deaths just because he doesn’t like our governor.

I have extended family in Houston that tested positive and they’re being treated with antibiotics and aspirin.

The scare tactics of the left are out of control. I live in the epicenter of the infections and can tell you that recoveries are up, TX has less than a 1% infection rate, and 1.2% death to infections. Infections increasing, recoveries increasing, immune systems working and death percentages dropping

7/19/2020 Cases Deaths Deaths/infection % Infections

United States 3,834,298 142601 3.7% 1.17%

New York 404775 32446 8.0% 0.21%

California 356178 7345 2.1% 0.89%

Florida 315775 4677 1.5% 1.48%

Texas 292656 3561 1.2% 0.98%

New Jersey 176501 15665 8.9% 1.92%

Since when have lefties cared about “economic damage)? Shoot, you all wanted it so Trump can be blamed for it. You don’t want people back to work but you do want them out there rioting.

And now the RW deniers want schools reopened willy-nilly. They think it's their constitutional right to go around spreading death and let the old and those with other condition be damned.

I call more bull****. Whereas the antibiotics post was ignorant, this one is of the nutty CT variety. Please feel free to prove either post of yours is true. I bet you can’t.

The true bull**** is coming from the left as the poster is accurate, you want the economic shutdown so you can blame Trump for the job losses and when the economy opens up you now want to blame him for the increase in infections

“Nothing to see here move on.”

Isn’t that the exact kind of gaslighting that screwed Texas to begin with?

Mandated mask wearing with stiff penalties for non-compliance. Not hard.

Newly Published Outpatient Study Finds that Early Use of Zinc, Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin Is Associated with Less Hospitalizations and Death

What do you think Azithromycin is?

Hmm... is that what NY and NJ did to result in having fewer COVID cases and deaths per 100K residents? If not, then your political motive seems to be showing.

Right, you want to use scare tactics and promote gloom and doom. The teachers are more concerned about their own health than they are about teaching kids who recover quite rapidly from COVID19

It seems that the Constitution right of freedom of choice only resonates with you and the left on abortion, the choice of wearing a mask is also a right of individuals. you wear a mask, practice social distancing, and quarantine and you won't get infected regardless of what someone else does

Nothing independent about you, all anti Trump 24/7, you keep ignoring the drop in the death percentages per infections and recoveries
