Greg Abbott has revealed himself to be a member of the Deep State

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) on Tuesday urged people to stay home as the state registered the highest number of new hospitalizations due to the coronavirus, marking the fifth consecutive day of rising hospitalizations.

Abbott reported that 2,622 people tested positive on Tuesday for the coronavirus, a new daily record for the Lone Star State. The prior record had been set on June 10, when 2,504 tested positive.

The state’s Health and Human Services Department also reported that 2,518 lab-confirmed COVID-19 patients are currently in Texas hospitals, up from 2,326 on Monday. Hospitalizations have been on a steady upward trend since May 25, when about 1,500 were hospitalized.

“If you do not need to go out, the best advice is still to stay at home,” Abbott said at a press conference in Austin.

    I don't know what to think until OAN weighs in.

    Words are important. I don't see a threat of fines there.

    Nice cherry picking.

    “The increased occupancy of hospital beds, it does raise concerns, but as shown today, there is no reason right now to be alarmed,” Abbott added. “Even though there are more people hospitalized, we still remain at the lowest threat level [for occupancy].

    The hoax IS over.

    Hey, anarchist, trust the government. They are looking out for you.

    Didn't you say this would be all over by April?

    I broke it down elsewhere already, and not going back to do again. However, the peak of all KPIs in Washington was ~April 10.

    It was over by April except for nursing homes and old people who didn't self-quarantine. Hope that helps.

    Which is exactly what the article said. Assisted living testing is nearing 100%. Hence the increase.
