    And yet when you look at the facts (deaths per capita), your point falls apart. Texas has the lowest deaths per capita among all states larger than 7 million in population.

    focus on facts, deb.

    Fact is look at now, not the past. Only 6 countries in the entire world had more deaths than Texas the past 2 days. Task force Abbott donor troll!

    really not a very insightful point since the virus rolled through many countries much earlier in the year.

    but keep on posting your panic p*rn.

    Exactly, and they knew how to contain it, unlike Abbott. He's a train wreck, and you are on it, tooting that whistle all the way.

    Reading this thread, one would have thought that Texans and NYers are mortal enemies that can only cheer for its others misfortunes and shadenfreude instead of being fellow Americans, citizens of the same nation.

    But then again thats only coming from a single sociopath poster.

    U are literally cherry picking numbers to paint how well Texas is handling this pandemic. Last I check, Texas belongs to the US and it's doing piss poor handling this pandemic. 140 k Americans and counting are dead, including those from Texas. Republicans can just fk off, cause they shown to me that when a pandemic hits, cant trust them to do anything.

    Reopening everything too quick, pushing to reopen school.
    Literally making mask wearing a politics issue rather than a health issue. U r one of the reasons why this pandemic isn't gonna end anytime soon. republicans always thinking about us vs them, texas vs the world. disgusting.

    Add in the selfish ones who refuse to give information so contract tracing can be done to protect others. They are selfish careless people. I've read many news stories about the difficulty contract tracers have. They get hung up on, people refuse to give information, and those who may have been exposed can't even be notified. What's wrong with people?

    It's such a selfish, heartless, situation. That's how we got in this mess of not being able to contain it, starting from the beginning. Our leaders were the root of the problem when it came to resisting any enforcement.

    Here's the latest example:

    COVID-19 cluster linked to NJ house party, parents not cooperating with tracers

    https://nypost.com/2020/07/23/nj-party-leads-to-coronavirus-cluster-parents-wont-cooperate/

    These are the kinds of parents who don't teach their kids a thing about and doing the right thing, and being responsible. Those kids grow up thinking it's ok to do what you want, regardless of how it may harm anyone else. These are the kinds of people who don't give a damn about the hospitalized or dying Americans, as long as it's not them.

    1 million new cases in the US in 15 days!!!!!

    If you call that panic p*rn you are really twisted. Your lack of empathy and the way you downplay the situation with your irrelevant data is concerning. Seriously, you need help.

    https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/articles/201305/how-spot-sociopath

    Absence of delusions and other signs of irrational thinking, untruthfulness and insincerity, unreliability, lack of remorse and shame, poor judgment and failure to learn by experience, specific loss of insight, absence of nervousness or neurotic manifestations are just a few of the signs of a sociopath.

    Honestly, I think he finds pleasure in downplaying the suffering and dying Americans. It's callous and disturbing. My emotions over people like that were already stirred up when the leaders in charge kept downplaying the signs, and just kept merrily going around mask free as a sign of their party, opening up without meeting any guidelines, and bragging about the stock market.

    The rich got richer over the pandemic and the people are just sacrificial lambs. Get back to work, get back to school, and just deal with it. We only have more cases because we have more tests. It's infuriating.

    This is what it's coming down to.

    COVID-19 patients will be ‘sent home to die’ if deemed too sick, Texas county says

    I don't know about you, but that is the last thing I want anyone I care about to be told. I can't just pretend this isn't disturbing, and to not be worried just doesn't work for me. I actually feel empathy for these people.

    Don't worry, it's just a hoax so anyone who is sent home will just hoax die.

    You could go to a nice park, a drive in theater, or a Sonic -- there are lots of nice places to die besides your home.

    We don't have time to go die in any of those places we got bills to pay MF.

    Just STFU and enjoy your lowest annual work hours in the OCED, and your 30+ days of paid time off you little ****.

    I have seen reports of extra morgue trucks and large refrigerators being stored in parking garages to handle the death overload. That's where we are as a state and nation. Thanks trump! #winning

    I was hearing a story on NPR that outbreaks are now moving up I-95 from FL and the areas to be concerned are the Carolinas and VA. There is concern too about a new wave in NJ, NY and MA.
