I know this should be common sense ..BUT the biased MSM leading the way in FEAR... they don't seem to see the correlation between the higher the population density per square mile and the number of COVID-19 cases.
SO to prove here are the FACTS:
Most of the cases are in states with higher number of people per mile.
Now I know that seems obvious...DUH!!! So why is there a NATIONAL movement for a NATIONAL quarantine?
Why do ALL states have to follow a national order to "social distancing"?
Or why do all STATES have to follow national order to close ALL but "essential" businesses?
All of the answers are directly based on % of cases per population/square mile!

You realize you just repeated what Democrats have been saying all along and completely undermined your conservitard brethren's attempts to say this is the Democrat's fault, right?
So you are saying that conservatives are in FAVOR of a national quarantine vs letting states determine?
Nope. I'm saying they've been blaming "Democratic shitholes" and we've been telling them "population density".
There should have been a national shutdown back in February or so. Unfortunately that would have required the ability to see the future and the current administration has problems just seeing the present so mid March is about the best we could have hoped for. Neither one happened.
Well I for one live in Texas and the Governor hasn't declared a STATE shut down and for good cause!
Only the major cities, Houston, DFW, San Antonio, Ft. Worth have experienced any real effects. So there was no need for a
STATE wide.. and that's the state's prerogative.
Whatever kiddo. Remember rural Texas is pretty much solid red. Meaning very few state hospitals and virtually no private ones. Also minimal services of all sorts. When this does get there you guys are gonna be in deep shit. Fortunately for you we Democratic types will step in and save you.
As usual.
Again... YOU have NO FACTS like I evidently have!
Texas has 602 hospitals with 76,110 beds. Source:
American Hospital Directory - information about hospitals from public and private data sources including MedPAR, OPPS, hospital cost reports, and other CMS files.
So again without any facts you make some dumb ill-informed statement...
COVID-19 cases in Texas 11,671 cases 226 deaths... Recovered 1,366... So subtracting
total cases 11,671
total deaths 226
Recovered 1,366
Total hospitalized, self quarantined or otherwise...10,079!
Where is the coronavirus in Texas? This map of COVID-19 cases in the U.S. is updated as cases are reported by state health departments and the CDC.

FACTS are that ...according to the report, an estimated :
21% to 31% of U.S. COVID-19 patients between Feb. 12 and March 16 were hospitalized, with
5% to 12% admitted to an intensive care unit.
An estimated 1.8% to 3.4% of U.S. COVID-19 patients died over the period.
About 80% of deaths and 45% of hospitalizations for COVID-19 in the U.S. are among adults aged 65 or older, with the risk of serious illness and death increasing with age, according to a report released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

As state officials try to mitigate a summer surge in COVID-19 cases, you can track case counts county by county in Texas.

SO Texas with 10,079 unknown... assume 31% from above source hospitalized or 3,124. Compared to 76,110 BEDS!!!
Dummies like you don't seem to use the internet... YOU just GUESS!
