Good luck with that here in Texas. People are done with it. We may see this in a certain few counties where the largest cities are, but everywhere else will be getting back to normal... whether the government likes it or not.

Abbot became a p***y this week, either he is part of "cheap labor express" or he has been threatened.

Either way, Trump will most likely lose Texas and the election now, since mail-in voting during the general election will probable be the outcome of all of this ...

Outdoor gatherings are not the problem.

Most outbreaks occur within close quarters.

I guess we’re learning that the virus operates on ITS TERMS, not our terms. In other words, we get tired of trying to control the spread - it just comes right back, and even worse.

Jack Windsor wmfd tv explained to DeWine about the increase in the number of positive tests. People who have been quarantined have had numerous tests to get out of seclusion.
7 positive tests from 1 person
It is not 7 new positive cases.
DeWine shrugged it off. No public gatherings for fireworks??
Time to protest with pyrotechnics

“Abbott putting the hammer down. Yikes.”

The rising numbers put him in a spot where he had to do something.

Maybe the Dems are seeding the virus throughout the population.

Abbott is acting like a Republican

Talk Like a Conservative

Govern like a pussy

And the unspoken challenge he throws at us is:

Who else are you going to vote for?

A positive covid rest is not really a case without serious symptoms or hospitalizations. Plus a 50% error rate according to medical professionals i personally trust.

I live in rural-ish Texas. Was rural, but the way the metroplex is expanding, it probably won’t be rural for much longer.

The major cities are where the snowflakes live and wear masks and scream at you if you don’t wear one. Here in the sticks, it’s pretty much normal and I have a feeling will stay that way... Normal Texans are done with this sh*t.

Lock it all down! Turn off the power! Close the gas stations! Burn it all! Right, Deep State?

Cases may be up, but what is the hospitalization rate? That’s the number that matters. If the cases don’t require hospitalization then the effect on the system isn’t occurring.
