But, really, do they need to be open past 5? Their most loyal demographic is in bed by 7.

Free and no proof of residency
I regularly drive by there at different times of day and have never seen any cars there other than I assume the people working there. There are enough cones to have hundreds of cars in line but the parking lot is empty.
I'm kinda surprised they haven't come up with some sort of incentive, like a free meal for everybody in your car who gets tested.
But that would cost taxpayers moneyJackal99 said:

Maybe get a test and get entered into a lottery to be sly's next airport intern to get a six figure salary for minimal to no work.
They would probably turn around and ask the feds for funding. If they don't get it then they can say that the WH defunded a meal program.

Restaurant owners are forced to close or operate at reduced capacity, so they don't have the funds to line the pockets of local officials to buy good will in return for a few cheap meals.Jackal99 said:

Looks like Southern Star found a way to re-open their taproom at 50% capacity despite having a 51% permit. I wonder how they did that and what other types of establishments with 51% permits will figure out the same thing?

Harris County test results (date of report) vs Harris County epi curve (date of specimen collection).
In other words, the daily "new case reports" are garbage. Harris County and City of Houston are laundering old results.
Probably going back to a 'buy a tour get 3 tokens' approach as I've been seeing some places doing that. Or requiring you to buy chips for $2 with each beer and beers are $2 cheaper than normal.LostInLA07 said:

Flying Saucer opened today as a restaurant but I'm not sure of how they're getting around it.
It looks like they're selling cups.

The median age of COVID deaths is 78. The life expectancy in the US is.....78
You do realize that those two things are not related at all right? The life expectancy of a newborn in the US is 78, the life expectancy of a 78 year old is roughly 88.

LOL at co-mobidities

The "new cases" today largely came from throughout July, with just about every day showing some additions and a sizeable batch from July 1st (!).
F'ing turds know Karen Facebook is scared and completely illiterate with nuances such as date of test vs date of report.
This whole reaction is criminal.
Make sense why turner and Lina are begging people to go get tested. Running out of a backlog to scare people with.
Yeah this public begging the last couple days is weird AF
Yepp and I've seen an increase in signs around town
Can someone explain this orange and blue graph? What is an EPI curve?
It's positive test results by date of the specimen collection. This is a more accurate representation of the state of affairs since test results can take some time to process.
And this graph shows that it can take a LOT of time.
The orange lines are the daily tallies as of today. The blue lines are the daily tallies as of yesterday. As you can see, positive test results were added throughout July, including a big chunk from July 1st.
All of these will be reported today as "new cases", though very, very few were from tests performed in August.

Thanks. Any reason why it takes a month to report the case when the patient gets the results in a few days?

Im sorry but I still don't understand the chart. Aside from 2 days (7/31, 8/4) the days look pretty consistent.
There's a bump on July 1st. There's also a small bump on every other day in July.
All those small bumps add up. So when officials announce, say, "1,000 new cases!" yesterday, it's evident that only a small portion of those "new cases" were from specimens collected within the last ten days. It's laundering of old data and not representative of the current situation.

That assumes that 30 days from now there isn't another big dump of cases from today.
The fact that it is taking 10+ days for test results to be reported completely negates any value from the tests

It should state, please get tested so we can continue to use false data to push our agenda.

It's a safe assumption from the TMC trendline, which is downward, and in agreement with the properly dated Harris epi curve. Their in-house tests are 2-48 hour turnaround.
To be fair to Sly, he keeps pushing positive test % as his metric of choice and a lower amount of tests helps inflate the %...he's still an idiot no matter what thoughJebber said:

When the local news reports "XX new cases reported in greater Houston today", it makes people think things aren't getting better by completely ignoring when the case was discovered and the relative volume of testing. They do the same thing with deaths, holding some back to keep people scared when support for their mandates starts flagging.Willy Wonka said:Keegan99 said:
