Mega breaking: Texas governor orders face mask use statewide

With the number of cases and hospital beds used I'm surprised he didn't close bars and restaurants down.

Protesters better be exempt!

bars are closed again

Whelp... There goes Texas.

He has zero authority for that.


What an idiot.

Good luck enforcing that one

Amd people thought he did not work for the satanic NWO. Well, there you go...

Maybe a Texas ranger of sheriff can arrest him with this unconstitutional order

It's unconstitutional.

Thanks for the link - surprised I still can't find a news link...

This.

What a freaking pussy!

Who didn't know this RINO is deep state?

BLM, LGBQT and leftist "protesters" are exempt. All other will be jailed.

This will happen everywhere... there is a clear trend.

Retardness.

From the actual document -
Every person in Texas shall wear a face covering over the nose and mouth when
inside a commercial entity or other building or space open to the public, or when
in an outdoor public space, wherever it is not feasible to maintain six feet of social
distancing from another person not in the same household.

So if you can keep 6 ft distance in public places no mask needed. So fuck off mask wearing idiots.

He also said something about no more than 10 people gathered together

Nice.

Facemasks = smart

Save your energy for when they try the compulsory "vaccine"

Read the article you do not have to wear the mask out in public if you can maintain 6 ft distance!

Fuck him. It’s not enforceable.

Fixed!

lost this Texans vote...sick of this garbage..

Just sent this to his office

Im not wearing a mask ever
With more then enough proof that these numbers are complete garbage why would you force people to wear
mask, wearing a mask is a symbol of support for the democratic party and china.

Please tell me he is done being Gov and can not run again to further destroy our way of life and the businesses we run in this state.

He has given into fear and is no longer a leader of people of this great state.

Found this on twitter, not sure of source:


Houston, TX hospital capacity update:

“What you’ve been hearing is a report that we are at 97% or so capacity...Exactly one year ago, it was at 95%. It is completely normal for us to have ICU capacities that run in the 80s - 90s. That’s how all of us operate hospitals...”

"The capacity that’s being reported is base capacity … we have the ability to go far higher than that in terms of the ICU beds....We are seeing younger patients, we are seeing a shorter length of stay, we are seeing lower mortality, and we are seeing lower ICU utilization."

"People need to come to the hospital or emergency department to receive care and not allow bad things to happen to them because they are somehow inaccurately afraid of coming to the hospitals. That’s a very key message.”

"The reality is our capacity to care for those patients significantly exceeds what we’re staffing on any given day...As you look at the capacity of the hospitals on a day-to-day basis, it can be a little misleading."

"Our goal has been for the hospital operators, the people who actually manage bed capacity, to be clear that we’re not in imminent danger of running out of bed capacity here in Houston to care of COVID patients, or those who have other illnesses that require hospital care."

Remember when masks didn’t work? I guess they do work now and all they had to do is say so.

First violation draws a warning, subsequent violations can come with a fine of up to $250.

Stupid democratic governor.... Oh sorry he's a republican hahaha America is fucked...
