Lol low percentages of such issues are highlighted to preserve the integrity of the vaccine but low percentages of issues with the virus itself in many age groups are covered up and "just 1 is too many" is shouted from the rooftops.

Sub 100 new cases is becoming regular for Dallas county.

Is that new cases or all positive tests? If you do test positive then don't you typically take another test days after to confirm and then another one like 10 days after the first positive to hope to start the clock on that first negative test?

Not arguing, legit didn't know.

I'd assume all positives. When I tested positive, I just had the one test. The risk with these tests are false negatives; false positives haven't really been an issue from what I understand.

He's such an idiot.

Dr. Philip Huang, Dallas County Health Department director, told commissioners recently that he didn't want to "move the goal post" that were defined last year, which he said is why the county was slow to lower that threat level.
So...let's not take into account the vast amount of information that we've learned in the last year about the disease and stick with what we planned in March 2020.

Exactly. Sorry Doc but what's the saying, ' Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt'

Any further comments needed now that the W.H.O. came out and said kids shouldn't get vaxxed yet?

That memo is an absolute mess. There are 989 new cases of which 184 are of concern yet 78% of the ones that are concerning are Alpha, yet Delta is the predominant strain in North Texas now.

Not sure how you are supposed to interpret any of that.

If the predominant strain is only 20 cases, then we are good.

So 20 strains is not predominant

It's almost like judge clay is lying to us!

Looks like Lord Clay had JJ Koch removed for not wearing a mask during their meeting today. It appears to be some petty ***** Obviously, Koch could have just called in, so it looks like he wanted a confrontation.

Clay Jenkins is such a POS. I've had the unfortunate displeasure of working with him and he is a dumbass.
What?? How can you not automatically like a two-time Baylor grad who's both a politician AND a personal injury attorney..???

(Note: It was sure nice of Saul Goodman to loan them his desk for the staff photo on the firm's web site...http://www.clayjenkins.com)

I think Clay did it a few days ago. I've seen the masks coming back in force lately and less people in the office. It's been ridiculous and is only getting worse. I can't imagine how bad it will be when we get to the epsilon, feta, gamma, hummus, etc variants.

Does anyone know someone first-hand that's currently sick to the extent they're in the hospital with covid?

Since March 2020, I've known 1 person who was hospitalized (60 y/o male, no known conditions), and that was in the Fall. Who the heck are all these hospitalized people now? I know of one other person who has gotten covid since vaccinations became available, he was vaccinated (65 y/o male), and he said it felt like it was a summer cold for 2-3 days.

Maybe I/we live in a bubble? Am I showing my #privilege?

I know of one person who was hospitalized and later died. He was also morbidly obese and a traveling nurse working ground zero. This was in early 2020.

That's my only example.

-Class of 2003 guy I know just got out of 10 days in the unit.
-Class of 04 guy I know just lost his dad (old) and sister-in-law (not). His brother was in the unit too but made it out. Mom caught it too, but had been vaxxed, and was fine.
-Friend from back home in Centex (she's 43) has a niece and nephew-in-law in the unit. Good times.

https://urbanpolicyresearch.org/covid19/county-data-dashboard/

I've been watching this dashboard closely for about 3 weeks since Delta got rolling. The growth rate of 7-day rolling average new cases and estimated total cases has started to slow over the past few days. Hopefully we'll see it plateau and reverse soon.

So one person you know firsthand and some people that other people you know also know?
