Texas Reports ‘Massive’ Increase In Coronavirus Cases, Hitting One-Day Record Two Weeks After...

Specific to Texas, targeted testing at meat packing plants and nursing homes have artificially driven the numbers of positives up. By identifying those at highest risk, they can be more effectively isolated, thereby reducing overall community spread. Among rural Texas communities, infection rates remain below 2%, while in urban areas less than 5% of those tested are positive.

Some areas make sense, some do not. Any densely packed area probably should be very careful and sparsely populated areas may be able to open up more.

The Navajo Nation is what has me concerned. It is a very sparsely populated area and was hit hard. Apparently there are a few places where people need to congregate, i.e. they only have a few supermarkets and perhaps that's where it got passed around.

As best I can tell; either no one is collecting, or no one is reporting some very important data.

_What is the rate of infection among those with underlying chronic health conditions, versus those without, by condition.
_Among those infected, what are the rates requiring medical intervention, hospitalization, or resulting in death; once again for those with versus those without underlying chronic health conditions, by condition.

In my opinion, the government cannot possibly protect both the health and the economic security of everyone. So we need to determine what factors make someone high risk, and protect their health and economic security. Those with a low-risk that infection with COVID19 will result in medical intervention, hospitalization, or death can get back to the business of America. Once the economy is flat-lined, the perfect conditions will be created for and end to our freedoms. Revolutions DON"T HAPPEN in countries that are prosperous and free. A father and mother who cannot keep their children clothed, fed, and sheltered, TODAY; aren't going to think much about COVID19 tomorrow.
