conservative never offer any solution to anything meaningful. They just care about giving more money to the rich, putting their fake god everywhere while not following the bible and start wars all over the world
conservative trash don't offer a solution to end the pandemic...this is the same group of assholes that don't like government over reach until government over reach is ok to ban masking, vaccination, abortion rights, etc....

If UT-Austin and Texas State University projections turn out to be accurate, without prompt (read:immediate) non-medical countermeasures, a mass casualty event, starting sometime this month due to lack of hospital capacity, probably isn't avoidable in Texas.
We currently have 8,093 available hospital beds across the entire State of Texas. Assuming no changes in what we are doing *now* in terms of pandemic mitigation, the number of hospitalized COVID patients in Texas by Labor Day weekend could range from as low as 23,268 to as high as 48,058 patients.
And that's for 8,093 currently available hospital beds.
Yes, we could probably do surge capacity but where do get more physicians and nurses to staff those beds? Trained personnel is the bottle neck in hospital bed capacity.We currenlty have 439 ICU beds across the entire State of Texas and by official number, 6,991 ventilators. Assuming no changes in what we are doing *now* in terms of pandemic mitigation, the number of COVID ICU patients in Texas by Labor Day weekend could range from as low as 6,281 to as high as 12,972 patients.AND THAT IS FOR JUST 439 AVAILABLE ICU BEDS. IN THE WHOLE STATE OF TEXAS.
Not every ICU patient will need a ventilator. Early in the pandemic, about 75% of patients admitted to an ICU for COVID needed a ventilator. Thanks to what we now know about treating serious infection, that percentage is now about 50% of ICU patients will need mechanical ventilation
Hospitalizations are lagging indicator. What hospitalizations look like NOW is a reflection of the pandemic environment 3-4 weeks ago. What we do NOW as a state will influence hospitalizations and ICU admissions in the days around Labor Day weekend.

GOP misgovernment broke the power grid and Texas hospitals in the same year.
Thanks, Greg Abbott.

When it was President Trump it was President Trump's fault. When it's mother er Biden it's the states fault &/or President Trump's fault.
Just shows ta go ya.
Well, mother er Biden had a "plan" but he couldn't divulge it till he got his mother er ass in there. 234k of dead Americans later we see mother er Biden's "plan" in all it's glory.

Gov Abbott has tied the hands of local officials to help.
Happy hunger games, y'all.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...-b1899109.htmlAustin-Travis County Medical Director Dr. Desmar Walkes told CBS Austin the situation was “critical”.
“Our hospitals are severely stressed and there is little we can do to alleviate their burden with the surging cases,” Dr Walkes said.
“The public has to act now and help or we will face a catastrophe in our community that could have been avoided.”
Gov. Abbott defines gender affirming surgeries as 'genital mutilation' after ban fails

it would make more sense to focus on elective facial procedure and butt implant clinics from a public health perspective, but we all know this has nothing to do with public health and everything to do with stoking Republican grievance and making trans folks unwelcome
Dallas ISD raises its middle finger to gubernatorial diktat
Sucks they have to defy the governor just to take basic precautions against covid
I'm sure his pastor told him that's what it is and not his doctor
Its just a democrat HOAX!
It will go away soon!
The day after the election- covid disappears magically!
GOP playbook at this point. They'll use this as an excuse for school vouchers and defunding public schools -- or any other agency that tries to protect people from COVID.
Necropolitics par excellence.
Maybe medicine was too hard for him, and that's why he became a senator, tbh
think he was an eye “doctor”
but now an expert on virology
what do you propose doing with them? locking them up?
