The Delta variant is ravaging Texas. "9,027 Texans are hospitalized for the coronavirus" — nearing the prior peaks of July 2020 and January 2021. Worse, "hospitalizations are increasing quicker than at any other point in the pandemic." In the Houston area, "
Cannot imagine a more horrible death than drowning in your own Covid pneumonia fluids as organs shut down. But your child by itself in an ICU...I read an account of a Houston pediatric Hospitalist that gave the grim details of children as young as 2 weeks with Covid and RSV in peds ICU.
The Gov. Of Texas is a madman, but the people of Texas are worse for putting up with all of this, supporting the
When I go to restaurants, it'd be nice to know if servers are dripping disease-laden droplets of mucus and sweat into my food as they bring it from the kitchen to the table. Those droplets can contain a lot of things, but they can't contain republicans' power-hungry desire for control over the masses, which is accomplished by denying basics like paid sick leave, living wages, and health insurance.
Thank you for filling in the details of the havoc Gov. Abbott is promulgating in Texas. Shifting a bit, to a bottom line, I have to admit that I have long been suspecting that those in favor of right wing politics do not care if many black and brown people do not get vaccinated or wear masks. These are not the citizens that the conservative right wing politicians bother to court for votes nor do they care about protecting these lives.
Wow, this sure brought out the rage. I pray for Texas' elected legislators, that those who truly wish to serve the public and not private corporate interests may be strengthened, and may prevail both in ensuring voting rights for Black and brown Texans and in correcting the race to ensure COVID-19 kills as many Texas children and adults as possible.
Stupid is as stupid does, not surprised about Abbot, it seems that Cruz is the same mindset. The state seemed to do much better for it's citizens when Johnson was President.
As I read and inform myself about things going on in our country, I am disheartened often because I know that if I post on FB I will get pushback. I also know that if I post any articles or my own words running past a few words ... it doesn't get read. Twitter is good in that few bother to argue with my posts. People of this country are truly digesting different information ... if they are seeing any at all. So, what's a caring person to do when she realizes there's no reaching - or changing the minds of - so many? Anyway, I still read and inform myself and when possible, I drop valid information into a conversation here and there. Thanks, Popular Info.

Texas…continuing to take the lead as our ‘most backward state’… let’s hear it for Republicans!
It's a constant "race to the bottom" between Abbott, DeathSantis and Noem as to which one is the most evil governor in the country.

J. Legum. Why is this behavior not considered criminal. Can the Feds do anything?

That's what the Republicans are all about... No surprise here.
