How many people are there? 10 people and less is what most counties are suggesting.

Why does it matter what his politics are? Make the identity of this hypocritical jackass known.
I understand. I'm really pissed too as I sit here trying not to murder my 2 and 3 year old sons when grandma and grandpa and cousins should be over here watching their little asses. But he's my neighbor who I have liked for 7 years so I'm not going to be the one to throw him under the bus. I'm sure there are some computer nerds who can figure out what county I'm in by previous posts and then find out the judges address and drive by and take a pic if they want, but I'm not going to do it.

Doesn't matter. He's an elected official who completely shut down entire businesses and livelihoods, yet the rules don't apply to him. Republican or Democrat, it doesn't matter. This kind of behavior is bull*****

He sounds like the typical elitist regardless of party. What's good for you doesn't apply to him.

You're right. I shouldn't have posted. My wife is pissed I did. I was upset that he's having a party with this badass weather and we're sitting here going crazy without family on Easter.

Just went for a trail run at Arbor Hills Nature Perserve

Collin County > Dallas County


White Rock appears to have been open and busy all day, despite the closed signs
I suspect that was all the Hispanics who said f* it or never got the news that the parks were closed. I lived by White Rock for many years and they absolutely owned White Rock on Easter Weekend.


Yep, I went there once Easter when my kids were little and went ape with the cascarones. Got all self conscious and picked up all the shells and some of the confetti.

White Rock was a challenge. When Johnson put in the stipulation that the parks could be closed but the trails had to stay open, it created a lot of logistical challenges. ADA, traffic patterns, parking in adjacent neighborhoods etc. With the trail being open, WR was effectively open. Outside of WR, the park system was basically dead.

Last week, or maybe the week before, when all the parking lots were closed and neighborhood streets had no parking signs up it was dead. I was surprised that wasn't what they did to "close" it this weekend.

They mowed the east side of the park one of those days everything was closed and for the next couple days it was amazing how litter free it was. I don't think I've ever seen in that clean in my life. People really treat this place as their own toilet.

89 new cases in Dallas County. 10 new deaths, 5 of which were from long-term care facilities.

Also, Texas has begun reporting the number of people tested by county with 9,500 residents of Dallas County have been tested.

Also, hospital conditions still good. One additional hospital reporting here making the rates appear to move upward. Not sure why one hospital wasn't reporting until now.

When the report reads "had been critically ill in an area hospital" is that referencing their condition before or after they contracted the virus?

Noticing that the traffic on the roads has increased significantly the past week in Fort Worth and NE Tarrant. Nowhere close to where it was a month ago but you can tell more people are getting out of the house, have no idea where they are going though.

No, people are just realizing it's pointless to get tested when you won't find out the results for two weeks and the only thing they will tell you is to self-quarantine for two weeks.

Today I noticed a bit more traffic on 121 east towards HEB. I was annoyed that I had to drop from 75mph to 65mph in rush hour.

My aunt tested positive. She was over the fever by the time it came back. They told her to hunker down for 14 days after fever went away. She's been sending in temps for over a week now at normal temps.

This is the most ridiculous thing ever.

If I recall people aren't in the ICU for their fever but the ARDS symptoms. I would count her very fortunate.

Daycare just sent e-mail saying they have to fill out forms now for Department of Health and Human Services keeping track of each parents "essential" jobs. Man the government reach on this one is getting big. Seems especially odd considering things appear to be getting better.

Yeah, it looks like the City of Plano numbers are released the morning after the county posts them.

109 cases in Dallas County; 1 new death.
Quote:
A day after Dallas County announced its highest single-day toll from the coronavirus outbreak 10 deaths officials reported one additional death from the illness.

The patient who died was a Garland woman in her 80s who did not have underlying health conditions.
Officials also reported 109 new COVID-19 cases Wednesday, bringing the county's total to 1,986. There have been 43 deaths related to the virus; Dallas County does not report how many patients have recovered.

In a statement, County Judge Clay Jenkins praised residents for abiding by the county's stay at home order, saying that continuing to follow those guidelines will ensure that hospitals have enough resources and help the area return to normal "sooner rather than later."

I'm sure this has been answered, but when were the 109 reported today actually tested? Isn't there a 10-day or gap before you get results? Trying to figure out if that's 109 new cases today, or 109 new cases a week or so ago.
