COVID Cases Continue Nosedive In Opened Up Texas

Maskless and wide-open Texas continues to make great strides in vaccinations and in COVID-19 test results, Gov. Greg Abbott announced.

"Today Texas surpassed 16 million vaccine shots, just 4 days after passing 15 million," Abbott tweeted. "We had the 2nd lowest number of lab-confirmed Covid-positive cases in 10 months: 1,073.The 7-day rolling Covid positivity rate was under 5%. Hospitalizations were near lowest in 10 months."

This follows a report from BreakingNews911 on Sunday, which noted that Texas and Mississippi have each had their lowest COVID rates in a year after dropping their mask mandates and opening to 100% capacity.

President Joe Biden, who referred to these decisions as "a big mistake" and "Neanderthal thinking," has yet to offer a follow-up comment that explains how wrong he's been so far.
