I'm not very well versed in the local politics, what does Jenkins have to gain by keeping the "doom and gloom" narrative going?

"In college at Baylor, Jenkins continued to distinguish himself dubiously. He was arrested twice, once for reckless driving after he led Baylor security and Waco police on a car chase he'd planned and a second time for criminal trespassing in a women's dorm during a panty raid. Strangely enough, he was never arrested for his role as the famous Baylor Pie Man, a hit man for a student-organized ring that offered to throw pies in people's facesprofessors, ex-boyfriendsfor a fee."

Clay Jenkins will never have even a sniff of governor. What a dumbass.

He's been milking the fear and publicity for all its worth. Maybe eyeballing a run at governor, but even if not gov, there are a lot more options to milk a higher Dem office out of this thing. I will be completely shocked if we dont see him running for something higher soon.

We can discuss his possible motives, but it's clear he is trying to make it look worse than it is. Here he tries to spin this to make people assume the number of positive tests is up without an increase in the number of testing.
Trucker 96

Yeah, his capacity spin is utter nonsense. That is straight up fearmongering and hoping this blows up on the governor when a real leader would be trying to instill a combo of confidence and caution

Some people just have a face that screams "Dunning Kruger Effect" and Clay Jenkins has the prototype.

Capacity only matters if you are running at it. I tweeted him back, asking, politely, what percentage of capacity we're at. No reply.

Here's a COVID dashboard for Texas only.

One of the pages has Trauma Service Area (TSA) Hospital Data. We are all in TSA E. TSA E has 7.8 million people within it. The number of active COVID patients in TSA E is 611.

611 active COVID patients in North Central Texas.

https://txdshs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/ed483ecd702b4298ab01e8b9cafc8b83
Yesterday's active COVID patient number is 636.
Yesterday's active COVD patient number is 530!

That's a day over day drop of 106 people. I would not have expected a drop that big. I would expect phase II to begin on time two Friday/Mondays from now - whenever it was originally scheduled.
TSA E (7,888,098 Texans) latest number is 513 COVID patients.

Appears that the Blue Angels will do a flyover of Dallas and Fort Worth either tomorrow or Wednesday.

Looks like this was all worth it.

Data as of 4/3/20, as published by the Texas DSHS. One point to note, it takes at least a day for the counties to report their stats and for those to be posted to the state website

Thunderbirds too!

Edit: Just kidding. News reports that it's just Blue Angels. Thunderbirds flew with them in previous cities.

That's a huge jump in one day, almost a third of the previous day, wonder if there's an error? The Mayors report had an error over the weekend, they reported 370 vents when it should have only been 317. He corrected it yesterday on twitter.

Can someone in Dallas Co. please tell us the number of tests the new cases resulted from. That is the only meaningful context for those numbers. Testing surely has got to be ramping up with the new testing centers opening (in spite of what Dr. Huang says).

The rate is pretty close to what it was on 5/2. It could be weekend reporting, for sure.

The whole point of reporting that is that it's small relative to the population and well below what we can handle in the area.

Low weekend numbers have been catching up on Tuesdays all along.

The County is only reporting that there has not been an increase in their testing (AAC, Ellis Fieldhouse, Mobile Units) which are 1,000 per day. On the link below under additional data you can see tests per county and check daily to determine the daily testing if you were bored, but as of today Dallas County has tested over 30,000. you would still be guessing at which day the positives came from though since there's a 4-7 day lag in results.

https://txdshs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/ed483ecd702b4298ab01e8b9cafc8b83

I had a video conference with my Dr and they are screening just about anyone with a fever if the patients wants to go through with the test, so there doesn't seem to be a shortage of testing locally.

Coronavirus death toll in US projected to double as restrictions ease, key model predicts

Another stupid ass model to look back on and think "why the F#&$ did we pay attention to that"? Someone tag me in August when we're at 135,000 deaths. I know everyone that tests positive to this and dies of something else is going into the numbers but that's still going to be inflated.

Time to go back to work before too late.

Just saw this on the news. Total BS. He would have let her go if she said she was selfish, which is a bull**** ask. Her response is I'm not saying I'm selfish for trying to make sure I can feed my kids.

She was doing this more for attention and to be a martyr than to put food on her table.

Don't care. Fine her more if you want. Putting her in jail is about the most counterproductive thing I could imagine if he's concerned about "safety". I'd argue the judge is guilty of plenty of prideful posturing himself.
