Texas response to Corona virus

[baseline bum]

thanks Bill Miller!

Balous Miller condemned us all

[TimDunkem]

Well yeah you blow up like to get to that 20%. And you'll still blow up a lot after that, just not in an exponential curve.

It's going to be a long road to that 60%.

Could be a short one. But the long one is likely the better one to be on.

"All amusement parks and carnivals around Texas are allowed to reopen today as part of Gov. Greg Abbott’s phased reopening of the state economy, while hospitalizations for COVID-19 increase and the number of deaths climbs.

Abbott is allowing those parks to reopen at 50 percent of maximum occupancy, even in hard-hit areas of the state. Six Flags of Texas in Arlington and Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio are among those that opened their gates today, but only to members and pass holders. On Monday, both of those parks open to everyone...."

Who came up with the phase plan logic that let bars open up before outdoor wide open amusement parks?

The area around Six Flags, The Rim, UTSA, and La Cantera is about to blow up with cases, tbh.

Gobbling down brownies and sweet tea counting his stacks

I like their fried chicken though. Their BBQ is horrendous, especially the brisket.

I'm guessing masks won't be required at Fiesta? How great would that be, standing in line in the middle of the 102 degree July heat with a mask on

[DarrinS]

Most of the early outbreaks were clustered around cold weather cities though, other than New Orleans, whose explosive growth could be attributed to jam packed bars for Mardi Gras. I was kind of expecting a lull in the summer where everyone would be comfortable only for a NYC style November/December reality check here. But looks like we're getting that reality check right now. We really don't know a lot about this virus right now so it wasn't obvious IMO. The only thing that was obvious was the US would get raped by it in March when we were seeing it tear through Northern Italy, France, and Spain early on.

People go indoors when it's hot. That's where it's spreading.

SA is now 4th hottest city nationally for case increases

Mask wearing outdoors is re ed, unless you plan on being close to someone for an extended period.

I'm having friends over tomorrow to hang out by the pool. Just use common sense.

Uh, dude?

I doubt it.

Don't see why not. The age range hitting hospitals right now frequent those areas.

You still going to bars then? Disagree on people going indoors more in the summer though than in the winter. Summer is when s come outside to go swimming, go the beach, go to park late in the day, etc. Ain't nobody out in the winter when it's 40 degrees with 20 mph winds.

It's the rich part of town, so no way it's going to blow up there the way it will inside 410. We know full well this virus hits poor people way harder since they're working in ice houses, restaurants, barber shops, salons, retail stores, grocery stores, amazon warehouse, etc and having to interact way more with people than those who can work from home. Coronavirus being the great equalizer is one of the biggest lies of the early pandemic, poor people get completely ed by it.

A lot of immigrants and low wage peons who take it home staff those areas. They're also frequented by a lot of boomers spending their disposable income. Maybe not cases in residents of the zipcode, but it'll be an area where spread is happening.
