Tx Supreme Court strikes down mask mandate in Bexar (San Antonio ) and Dallas counties.
Interesting legal wrangling there. Also, technically not struck down, just blocked. 

Though it reads like there isn't much legal ground for the locals to prevent a larger bureaucracy from dictating the terms there.  I'll be interested to see how things shake out on the business side of things. Governor seems to be using the full extent of his power to tell them how to operate.

The exact opposite of a year ago.

Today I learned of the 11th and 12th person I know that died from COVID. One was a late 60’s early 70’s man and one was an early 40’s woman.

perhaps after a year of data and experience, something has changed or was learned?

yup, especially the top 40 or so players.  Anyone expected to see the field

a sit down with the player and position coach in the head coach's office with the parents on the phone

Git'R done!
College players are adults.  There is no need to include parents, although I imagine some would be pissed if the coach did that without them.

Spain peaked around Jul 21.  I've estimated we're a month behind, it might be 5-6 weeks.  Of concern is that the UK is off their peak but no longer declining.

France may have peaked around Aug 11.  Maybe.  India peaked around May 5.    Sweden has not seen a third wave.  Yet.  There is a premise Delta moves south to north, I don't know on what that is based.

Florida is too early to read but at least the last few days have been better.

Yeah, that's why Fearless wisely advised including them.

College coaches know they have to keep momma happy.  That's a tale as old as time.

As Delta Surges, Covid-19 Breakthrough Cases Remain Uncommon - WSJ

Just imagine how bad things would have been a year ago, before anyone in the USA was vaccinated, if Delta had been the primary strain.

The intial thought it was spread by skin contact was scary.  I think it happens only if someone sneezes on your hand, or a surface your hand touches just after.
