TEXAS GOVERNOR SAYS ‘MASSIVE OUTBREAK’ SWEEPING THE STATE
Houston On Pace to Exceed Intensive-Care Capacity by Tomorrow Today
From the Freedom-Haters at Bloomberg.com.
Texas is experiencing a “massive outbreak” as Covid-19 cases multiply, Governor Greg Abbott said on Wednesday as hospital systems in the state’s biggest cities strained to handle the influx of patients.
Texas posted its worst day so far for new cases, with a jump of 5,551 to 125,921, according to the state health department. The 4.6% one-day rise exceeded the 3.7% seven-day average. Hospitalizations climbed by 7.3% to 4,389.
If it weren't such a serious life and death matter, it would ALMOST be funny watching Texas’ shit-stain Governor Greg Abbott, who barely shut down the state in the first place and re-opened weeks before others, now realizing how many Texans' deaths are on his hands, furiously backpedal to this week's begging people to stay home, with his serious, "this time we mean it" spurs jangling at his feet. What's that old saying about horses and barn doors?
"Ol’ Bodybags” Abbott will have tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths on his watch, and conscience, due specifically to his policy decisions. I can't crawl inside that scumbag's head, nor would I want to. But unlike the truly clueless-seeming DuhSantis in Floriduh, whose decisions will give Ol' Bodybags a run for his Body Count Bowl trophy, the Texas Governor appears to the casual political media observer, to be experiencing at least some kind of "Oh shit what the fuck have I done?" moment. They should pile up the body bags outside his bedroom window.
UPDATE:
Did I mention Ol' Bodybags' pleadings for everyone to please stay home aren't backed by ANYTHING that resembles a statewide policy with legal teeth? He's still pushing it back on the localities, and asking nicely. I’m sure all the Good Ol Boys will do as requested.
