On the plus side, Houston positives are trending down WoW over the past several days.  They were the first to start climbing, 1.5-2 weeks before Austin and Dallas began climbing, and so perhaps this is a leading indicator for the other metros in the state.

The Governor of Texas just announced masks mandatory for whole state
I realize the problem of closing the barn door after the sheep are already out...

...but wouldn't it have been nice if he did this a week ago?

Folks resistant to the wearing of masks are so recalcitrant in many cases I expect wide spread disobedience, and then what?

Businesses might not allow access without a mask.  Some may put it on to gain entrance and then remove it.  What then?  Cause a scene?  Call the police?

It would be nice duh if folks would just use some common sense about this.  But the level of conspiracy lunacy I see on masks on FB is beyond the Pale.  Some think "they" are using this as a ruse to come for our guns.

I can't deal with folks like that.

My favorite is the people who abstain from masks because they believe it will result in a dangerous hypoxia scenario...


...and yet none of them have embraced the face shield which has the benefits of masks and doesn't impede airflow at all.

I'm glad surgeons who do delicate multihour long operations don't wear masks and become hypoxic.

A young woman did this at the post office yesterday.  She was talking to the postal worker, who is behind a big clear shield, and holding her mask out a couple inches from her face.  To me, not a big deal, but not useful, either.

The supervisor asks her to not do it, and the lady goes off on her, yelling, disrespecting her, etc.  After the tirade, she tells the worker she needs to do it so she can breathe.

There's all sorts of stupid among us.  This lady was nuts for going off on a minor request to her minor act.  On the other end, we have people driving around with a mask on.  THAT is how your breathing is affected - prolonged mask use, and if you're alone - absurd mask use. 

The masses, the masses!

so, I'm hearing that many more folks are wearing masks

if masks are effective, the curve should begin to flatten again
If.  If?  IF???     :banghead:

Well, Austin and surrounding areas mandatory mask orders went into effect earlier this week, San Antonio was last week, and I have no idea when Houston and Dallas started doing it.

Basically this order was providing political and legal air cover for the major metros who had already put in the ordinance, and it will force the smaller towns that might or might not be doing it, to comply.  Of course, ENFORCING it in those areas, is another matter.

Had to run some errands today... Home Depot, homebrew store, and Costco.

Home Depot and Costco were all fully masked everywhere I looked. Homebrew store? Not so much. Patrons appeared to all be masked (as far as I could tell) but none of the staff were. Fing aholes...
