He's been in the hospital for at least 2 1/2 weeks.
Case in point as to why staying home/social distancing is so important.

There's a distillery in Galveston that has converted over 100% to making hand sanitizer. Last I heard it was only being sold to law enforcement but they were hoping to make enough for walk-in sales.
You must not have watched the news in February or the first week of March. They sure as hell did. Maybe not specifically for Chinese New Year, but they all made a show of pandering to Chinatown, including several local news folks.aTm2004 said:We also didn't have woke city leadership on the news telling us to go cozy up to the Chinese in our community during Chinese NY celebrations.CowtownAg06 said:
Disagree on this. We did take measures must faster than NY, plus we advantages with lower density. The biggest issue in NY is hospital capacity and we've got plenty. The other evidence is the fact that you're not seeing California over run in the same way. I'm not saying that we're out of the woods, but we are not headed toward being NY.
I apologize for upsetting you for expressing that I am upset about one of the very many things to justifiably be upset about during this whole ordeal, especially since it wasn't the thing that you felt I should be upset about at this exact moment in time though I am, rest assured, pretty upset about that thing too.Agasaurus Tex said:

Guess I missed that...as did probably everyone else in the city aside from some granolas in Montrose.Body By Fisher said:You must not have watched the news in February or the first week of March.

if anyone was watching the corona virus task force presser today they talked at length about pushing back on the cartels right now. that is why my ship is headed down there. So basically Trump talked about me on national television.

Sorry to derail the topic further, but why did the cartels come up on a pandemic task force briefing? I get they are bad and all of that but WTF does that have to do with the stopping the pandemic? Do people believe drug smugglers pose a significant risk for spreading the virus?third coast.. said:

And also Trump has a strong fetish about going after drug dealers/runners.

Don't the cartels usually smuggle people over the border to bring the drugs in? If so, there could be some concern about that as well and not knowing who's coming in.IrishTxAggie said:cajunaggie08 said:Sorry to derail the topic further, but why did the cartels come up on a pandemic task force briefing?

I'm sure you're not calling me a granola in Montrose. It was all over the TV news. The mayor, Gene Wu, and other local officials and media figures downplayed this for weeks and bent the knee in Chinatown.
