Just under 2700 deaths. Rate is 93/million population.
nope, I don't believe that is the case at all. My decision to wear a mask has absolutely nothing to do with those people say and do. I use a general element of common sense that says I can't spread it to others easily if I'm wearing a mask and other people can't spread it to me easily if they're wearing a mask plus if I wash my hands/sanitize often touched items and don't touch my face then I'm in a low risk category. Blaming others is for the weak minded.Jinx 2 said:And why is that? One big reason is the example set by Trump and by governors like Abbott and Ducey.Gruvin said:nope, too many people who think that their civil liberty to not wear a mask and social distance is more important than doing the right thing.

The only silver lining-and it's a tarnished one-is that maybe people will vote out Trump and some of the state leaders, both governors and mayors, who wouldn't listen to public health experts and work together to reduce the number of deaths. And even that's a big question, as a large number of people are willing to accept obviously false narratives and excuses rather than admit that they, the media they consume and the leaders they support are wrong.

What's Texas' current death rate? How does it compare to the flu? How does it compare to other states for Wuhan virus?
The only silver lining-and it's a tarnished one-is that maybe people will vote out Trump and some of the state leaders, both governors and mayors, who wouldn't listen to public health experts and work together to reduce the number of deaths. And even that's a big question, as a large number of people are willing to accept obviously false narratives and excuses rather than admit that they, the media they consume and the leaders they support are wrong.
The death rate should already be up. Your clock is already on time buddy.TexasScientist said:Death isn't increasing because it lags behind, taking as long as four to six weeks of suffering for someone to succumb to the virus. Death rate will begin to go up in a few weeks. Surely you understand that.Doc Holliday said:Death isn't increasing.Jinx 2 said:Abbott followed Trump instead of public health experts. Now Texas will have more cases, more deaths and more economic damage. You can try to put a positive spin on that now. I'll be interested to see how long you can sustain the gaslighting about what's happening in Texas, and what the talking-point excuses for more cases and deaths will be.RD2WINAGNBEAR86 said:Abbott has 29 million constituents.

I have taken care of more than 50 Covid + patients personally, half of them on a vent, but I am sure you know more.TexasScientist said:Wrong. Nick Cordero suffered for over a month before he died. Read what I wrote that you bolded. I said as long as. Some people die much sooner. The evidence is abundantly clear that death rate lags behind infection rate and hospitalization.Gold Tron said:The bolded is categorically false. We have only had a single patient that required more than two weeks of ventilation before declaring themselves one way or the other.TexasScientist said:Death isn't increasing because it lags behind, taking as long as four to six weeks of suffering for someone to succumb to the virus.

Horrible analogy. In WWII I would have been on the front lines bearing arms fighting for our freedom. I am certainly ready, willing, and able to do the same in 2020/ 2021if necessary.TexasScientist said:Most Texans are reasonable people who have compassion for others, and don't mind temporary inconvenience for others benefit until we get through this. Texans endured rationing in WWII. Do you think that was socialism and a threat to their individual freedoms?RD2WINAGNBEAR86 said:Texans don't like being controlled. The elimination of law-enforcement is HUGE loser in Texas. This little dose of Socialism we are all experiencing right now has most Texas voters chomping at the bit for November 3rd. And it is not for the guy that is six months away from Memory Care that wants to take.their guns. Trust me on this.Jinx 2 said:Abbott followed Trump instead of public health experts.

Canada says hi.
Texas has lost 97 lives per million.
If the subject is the Texas outbreak, so far at least, we are faring better than Canada.
