“Travel is fatal to prejuidce, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” Mark Twain

Gov Abbott,
We can’t keep #Covid19 corralled when we take down fences. Our cases and deaths in Texas will rise as we stop social distancing. Let’s be careful to not start a stampede.
COVID-19 testing like this continues to ramp up across the state.
We will continue to corral the #coronavirus...
...as we open up business in Texas.

If we "flatten the curve" the #coronavirus #covid19 will last longer. Here is another way to beat it: We need 90% of the population to be immune to have "herd immunity". Worldwide, 9% of the population is over 65 years old. The flu has a death rate of 0.1%.

I need to make a correction. Based off an MIT article, for #coronavirus #covid19 we need to get to 50% "herd immunity" to protect the population. This, of course, is much easier to reach than the 90% number I posted. Sorry for the mistake. I'm trying to get smarter.

MIT article by @antonioregalado here (very good): technologyreview.com/s/61537…
The healthy and young could protect the elderly and compromised by getting the disease and then building a planned herd immunity. Right now, we are building haphazard herd immunity and it will drag out. Kinda crazy for sure, but we are in crazy times.

Think about it... And stay safe out there. We will get through this by working together and being smart. We have bigger brains than #coronavirus #covid19. We can use our brains to beat it! 🧠🦸♂️🧠🦸
If everyone, worldwide, went into isolation for 45 days then whoever had #coronovirus #covid19 would either recover or die and whoever doesn't have it wouldn't get it. In 45 days we would be disease free. I know it is probably an impossible recipe, but it would work.

The #fed cutting interest rates to zero is like a food truck in a cemetery cutting the price of their tacos by 50%. #covid19 #coronavirus don’t care.
This will take some time to work through, but we can do it together. Be safe everybody.

There has been a lot of bad math about the Coronavirus. I agree with the math in this tweet. Thanks, Liz, for your tweet. #COVID19 is a big deal and people need to prepare and not just stick their head in the sand and sing a happy song. Preparation can keep your family safe.
I think most people aren’t aware of the risk of systemic healthcare failure due to #COVID19 because they simply haven’t run the numbers yet. Let’s talk math. 1/n
