Yeah, if you’re in Texas, and not 85+, there’s .000002% chance you will die from COVID-19. Better lock that fucker down and mask up.

Even better - Marxist DPST;s - stay in your Liberal shithole cities that you destroyed - and keep your marxist ideology to have something inplace of law and order, food, water, and electricity in your bankrupt shit hole cities. Stay where you are - no need to come to texas - DPST's are already in their element - self-created.

  • Cause of death reporting changed on death certificates

    • After the 25th merely suspecting it was enough
    • In both cases, it is not required to be the primary cause, just included
      • So you can fall out of airplane from 10,000 feet and die and if they decide to test you - COVID is also listed as a cause of death
  • Case reporting changed, bear in mind testing has increased logarithmicly
    • Prior to May 25th it was confirmed by a positive test result
      • 1 positive test = 1 positive case
    • After May 25, "probable" cases are reported
      • 1 positive test can yield 16 probable cases
        • Rational (sic?) being if you got it, your family probably does and your friends and their friends
        • Thank you contact tracing

They been "playin the number from the start ,,,,, (98.4 of ALL ER visits are not covid 1984 related) that means Only 1.6 are and i'm not good at math
Very Suspicious that once the "curve started going down they found more cases from monthes ago???WTF

No "the curve hasn't Flattened "
ITS fallen off the mountain even the LSM is saying numbers down even after "finding all these NEW cases "
the facts are the curve has not flattened in texas

facts

as you know
trump couldnt beat a rock this november, oh the red state of texas going to cry so much about it

its putins fault he didnt rig the machines this time Originally Posted by Missburger

But you are also wrong in your critique of Texas.

I note you are from NY and probably have an inferiority complex over how badly NY performed. So you lash out at the biggest red state to assuage your low self esteem.

Texas did have a bad run over the last 2 months, but the trend in Texas - and Florida too - is decreasing new cases. So the curve HAS flattened in both states. Flattened simply means it is NOT going up - either it is level or decreasing. That is undeniably true in Texas right now.

I note you have not mentioned blue state California, which has also had a bad two months. At least as bad as Texas. California appears to be leveling off, but I don't think it is going down yet. At least not according to the Johns Hopkins model.

So do us a favor and skip the red state-blue state critique. Because the blue states have taken a much bigger hit since this all began than the red states have. The worst hit ones are NY, NJ, MA, and CT on a per capita basis. Illinois and California are right behind them.

And you ridiculously try to blame the early opening of bars and restaurants, but completely ignore the massive George Floyd protests starting in early June.

Ultimately, it is not politicians that control this, it is the people themselves. We have learned the hard way that people don't react until the threat gets serious.

NY got burned early due to its mass transit and population density. They lost so many people, which had three significant results that slowed the disease: 1) they ran low on people with co-morbidities; 2) the population got terrified; 3) they got closer to herd immunity.

Factor 1 - After 30K die in two months, the death toll MUST drop, simply because you have less people around who are elderly, obese, and diabetic. However, I don't think the Democrats in NY want to take credit for this improvement.

Factor 2 - The NY population took masking and distancing far more seriously than other states - red or blue. Scared people are far more likely to take precautions because the threat is very real, not remote. But, this isn't really due to any political decisions. It's just human nature - self preservation at work. And again, I don't think NY Dems want to take credit for terrifying the population.

Factor 3 - We know that there are FAR more asymptomatic people than symptomatic people. There are estimates that 25% to 50% of the NY population has already had Covid and developed antibodies. That will reduce the transmission rate. Combine that with continued masking and social distancing and you can keep a lid on new cases. But again, that level of herd immunity was achieved at great cost.

California, Florida, Arizona, Texas, Georgia and other states were spared the early onslaught that NY, NJ, and CT suffered, because those Sunbelt states have far lower population density than the Northeast and people commute alone in cars, not on crowded mass transit.
