100+ is the OG underlying condition. It needs no introduction and no validation.

The reality is a boat load of these positives were for people tested a week ago. We won't know our real numbers today for a while, lets call it 2 weeks

The amount of differing opinions cone has on this thread is astounding to me

Multiple personality disorder

Was it from a contact at hobby lobby?

So that means he calls a conference tomorrow for the lockdown right?

I'd be astounded if he shuts down again, will be political suicide...and politics has become the main driver of this thing now

Perhaps, but his approval numbers on his handling of the virus is sitting at 40%. It was at 60% back in April. He has managed to piss off everyone with his non-action followed by action.

Not sure of the accuracy, but I've heard from multiple people that Abbott is strongly considering a statewide 2 week stay at home order on Friday.

This was supposed to happen Monday...Then it was Tuesday...Then now Friday.

I think Abbott is doing a pretty good job with the hand he's been dealt

opening bars being the only major f up

ipening bars isn't an f up, there is a very large element of personal responsibility that we are passing off to the government

Well, punishing the entire state because of the protests, riots, and giant funeral did kind of piss a lot of people off, especially not mentioning that as a reason the numbers were going up.

I saw Sly on the Today Show this morning beating the drum of 'When you open too fast this is what happens'

How damn hard is it to not make a public health crisis political for any of these MFers?

When this first started, I thought he handled things well while Dora was the one pushing fear porn. Now, Sly has decided to do the same thing for some reason. Are his donors pissed they didn't get a big enough slice of the NRG hospital pie and want more? Does Dora have more details of his relationship with Airport Intern?

I think he's was using the George Floyd crap to pander to his constituents. He was all good up until then. Then saw an opportunity to jump in and latch on.

He too has yet to mention 60k people packed into downtown pole to hole as a reason for the uptick. Instead he wants to blame reopening too fast.

I should say...I don't expect anyone to come and say the protest was the reason for the uptick because I think it's multiple reasons but no one has even mentioned it as a contributor.

Can you read? I said not sure of the accuracy. And you're an idiot if you believe him shutting things back down for 2 weeks is all that far fetched.

fwiw, I think 07 wasn't coming for you personally. Just commenting on the frustration that its been a rumor all weekend and into this week that a shutdown is coming but nobody knows when. I heard from a family member last night that works for the county that there is a rumor we were reverting back to phase one sometime this week. Hard to know what the hell is going to happen, but that has been the mantra throughout this entire virus.
