Even if they do announce 2 weeks, I'm just assuming that everything is staying throughout April at this point. My guess is the next Abbott press conference will officially stop school for the year as well

I don't post often, but I am in serious need of prayer. I have been quite sick for 9 days, and my covid test has come back positive. Unfortunately, it has infiltrated my lungs and I have been admitted to the hospital on iv antibiotics. This has been the hardest week of my life and not sure what will happen next. Husband and I are both Aggies, class of 99 and 00. Have two young daughters at home with no symptoms so far. Please, please keep me and my family in your prayers.

Do you or your family need anything right now? Definitely will pray.

I'm sorry to hear this. I tested positive for the virus 2 weeks ago and have recovered. I read about a plasma transfusion treatment from recovered patients. I am minutes from the medical center and can donate if needed. I know Methodist is doing it, but haven't heard anything about donors volunteering. charles0608ag at gmail. Will respond immediately.

Hidalgo said more than 3,700 tests have been completed at Harris County's two testing sites. That does not include tests that have been completed at the city's site, as well as hundreds of others completed at private hospitals and clinics.


The city only has one site with 250 tests/day.

Crazy.
Is Dora the Explorer more competent than Sly in getting facilities ramped up across the county compared to the city limits?

Yup, the release of criminals is pure social justice warrior bull***** These dumb****s really believe the criminals in jail are not guilty and it's only the white man laws that put them there.

Okay, that one is valid. Otherwise, testing and all of that.. she's kinda at the mercy of what resources are available.

I get the non-violent criminals bit, just because if someone gets sick in the prisons.. that's an automatic **** show to try to deal with. They may be thugs/criminals.. but they are still citizens with rights and when in custody, we are responsible for their health and safety.

Use their cell as the hospital bed and treat them there, but don't release them.

Treat their symptoms just like any other illness going through a prison. Don't release them.

Regarding testing, I would want someone with good negotiating skills putting pressure on wherever the tests are coming from. I don't have much faith in young Lina Hidalgo to accomplish that.

New resource from Rice that tracks the number of people tested across the state, current hospital bed utilization rate and the numbers of staffed beds and intensive care beds in Texas hospitals.

has she called for the release of murderers and thugs?

or just non-violent criminals?

because Emmitt would have done that also. Theres a reason the Governor specifically said counties are not prohibited from releasing non-violent offenders. the cost of a widespread corona outbreak is a jail would be tremendous. its not worth keeping some of these people locked up.

Why has there not been more concerning the travel restrictions from LA?

Abbott put the order in but on the news TXDOT says there are increased patrols along major thoroughfares, but no check points or monitoring stations etc. They're interviewing people at the rest stop from LA saying they just drove right in. Hell one guy drove for days from NYC because he has health issues and was fleeing.

WTF is the point? They really think a couple extra patrol cars are gonna keep someone from fleeing ground zero to here?

The problem is if one person gets sick, it will run through the whole prison and that's a big big problem on resources/ventilators. I'm not saying that releasing is the right solution, just that I totally understand that this is a really valid concern. There is no "social distance" in a prison.

As much as I agree with Abbott about this, it may just be posturing. Checkpoints and turning people back is questionable at best from a constitutional rights perspective.

It would be a lot easier to put national guard in NYC where you have a couple dozen ways to leave instead on patrolling highways in Texas.

It's not so much that they think they are not guilty. They truly believe that systematic racism forced them to commit crime, and that white people would do less time in jail for the same thing.

I say, if you truly believe that and you think someone should be freed, then you have to sponsor them in your home and be responsible for their actions. If they commit a crime while out, then you go to jail too.
