Texas COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations continue to see a downward trend more than two weeks after the state scrapped its mask mandate and allowed businesses to reopen at full capacity.
On Saturday, Texas' seven-day COVID positivity rate reached an all-time low of 5.27 per cent, while hospitalizations fell to their lowest level since October, according to the latest state data.
The state recorded 2,292 new coronavirus cases, about 500 fewer on average from last week, and 107 new deaths.

*MORE BS*!!!! Hospitalizations and deaths in Texas have been falling since January!! Don’t believe me? Texas (and about the only one) has a spreadsheet you can download and do your own research on. I’ve been reviewing the Hospitalizations and deaths for months and months.
These people are LIARS!! Go here:
dhs.texas.gov/coronavirus/ and look on the right under “CASES” and download the spreadsheet yourself.
LIARS LIARS LIARS!!
“Hmmm. Can’t reach this page.”
....totally true....but retailers are still posting “ya gotta have a mask to enter...!” signs to that effect on their front doors....I went to a local Walmart the other day, without my mask, as usual, and was berated by an employee at the front door because I did not have on a mask...this whole scenario is becoming more bizarre by the day....
This stuff has run its course. Most have had it and recovered or getting vaccinated. The dems just want to continue to have power. They will have fauci saying there are other strains coming out. I wish the people would stand up and get together and run these people out of office. Just kick them out in the streets. Should have done it after the obvious fraud election.
It’s from the Texas DHS website.
Is this the entire link?
dhs.texas.gov/coronavirus/
I get “site can’t be reached” message...
At least Neanderthals had a line of thought, Joe lost his long ago.
I wonder if this virus was designed to have a specific lifeline? Is the virus outrunning Fauci?
Well played
Will the stats include the covid cases from the new illegals? I guess it depends on who is counting and why.
(1) People being out more and staying less often, and in shorter durations, in enclosed spaces with the same persons in close contact.
(2) How a infections transmitted? (A) Close contact, (b) in enclosed spaces, (c) for some period of time.
(3) Letting people out and about was always the best choice.
A few months back a large post-infection contact tracing study in New York was done, involving thousands or people.
80% of the infections were found to be in two types of contact situation. 66% were in the home. The rest of the 80% was in healthcare and/or nursing home type settings.
So, a 20% minority of the infections happened in all the other types of contact that officials were trying to minimize keeping the lockdowns in place.
Let the people go!!!!!!
State constitutions need to be amended to put time limits on lockdowns and on the mandatory wearing of masks.
State constitutions also need to be amended to make state health and environmental protection officials elected by popular vote.
Constitutionally time-limited lockdowns and limited mask requirements need to automatically trigger special recall elections for governors, mayors and disaster officials who order lockdowns and mask wearing, also state lawmakers.
Finally, constitutions need to require people planning to run for state and local offices to escrow a refundable "recall deposit" before becoming a candidate, the deposit fully paying in advance for their possible recall elections if they are elected, amounts determined by law.
Also, once patriots get their constitutionally clueless state leaders up to speed with the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers and put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes, each state will be able to afford to find the best way to serve its people.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
In fact each state should take the advice of Justice Brandeis who had volunteered his "laboratories of democracy" metaphor to emphasize the unique 10th Amendment powers of the states and the people to experiment with social policy, ultimately depending on what legal majority citizen voters of each state want.
"It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system that a single courageous State may, if its citizens choose [emphasis added], serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.” —Justice Brandeis, Laboratories of democracy.
Finally, citizens need to start working with their federal lawmakers to demand the following. When the federal government accuses someone of violating one of its laws, the accused also needs to be informed of at least the common name of the constitutional clause that arguably justifies the law for further scrutiny of the constitutionality of that law, especially where our 2nd Amendment safety net is concerned.
I was out errand-running as I usually do on Saturdays. Went to Lowe’s, Costco and HEB (all in Houston area). All those stores had a mask requirement and I wore mine. I only saw people without masks at HEB, maybe 4 people.

People aren’t getting sick anymore from wearing filthy masks. We should have learned this lesson when Florence Nightingale opened the windows in hospitals and let fresh air in.
I’m old enough to remember when every democrat was encouraging people to get out to China town and calling Trump’s kung flyu response “racist xenophobic fear mongering.”
Was it really that long ago?
The government lust for power hasn’t run it’s course though.
Most everywhere has been falling since mid-January.
Some places have been falling since peaking in November.
