The Department of Health and Human Services will set up four COVID-19 testing sites in Texas, the agency announced on Friday in a joint statement with Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R).
In June, Trump ended support for 7 Tx testing sites and now will open 4 testing sitesā¦that is still 3 testing sites shortā¦NOT an addition, just inadequate replacement!
TrumpWorld jumps right in and screw the people. Next they tweet and scream and lie and write op-eds, etc. etc. Then after getting nailed they āopenā and INSIST DAMMIT that they are responding to the peopleā¦and use it in ADS and rallies and pat themselves on the back.
āThe announcement of the ātemporary COVID-19 surge testing sitesā comes over a month after the Trump administration nearly let support for seven testing sites in Texas lapse.ā
It also comes after yesterdayās daily report of 306 new Covid-19 deaths in Texas in the previous 24 hours.
Putting out embers is it?
Four paltry sites, when the need for sites and the capability to return results in 48 hours is hugeā¦this is basically window dressing while the house burns. Biden taking over just canāt come soon enough, though things are so screwed up that it might take a couple months to put everything back into operation.
It should be called,
Trumps Department of Health and Death Services.
always late to the party and when he gets there he thinks itās a party for him.
I canāt wait for trump to finally be slam dunked for no points. Just years behind bars
Trump has announced that only Texas and Florida are spared from Trumpās cuts to National Guard funding for COVID-19 response
Now, guess which two states Trump CANNOT afford to lose in the upcoming electionā¦and which two states will now be lavished with all the COVID-19 help the Federal Govt. can muster.
Wait just a doggone minute. Do you mean to tell me that Covid isnāt a Democrat hoax?
Iād go with āSickness and Death Servicesā, which gives us āSDSā as the acronym. Heās too stupid to pick up on the implications of āSDSā to those who remember the '60s and if we donāt spell it out we can make him think it stands for āSuper Donnieās Servicesā, so heāll start using it in his tweetsā¦
Sens. Ted Cruz and John Cornyn sent a letter to the Trump administration demanding that the [government run] sites be kept open
Sacrilege. The Gospel according to St. Ronald clearly states that āThe nine most terrifying words in the English language are: Iām from the government and Iām here to help.ā
But the eight most hypocritical are āIām a republican and Iām here to help.ā
And the seven most truthful are: āIām a republican and I donāt care.ā
Too many Texas and Florida Rs are getting sick/dying. Votes are getting expensive.
But this is Texas, so one of the four turned out to be a Louie Gohmert kissing booth.
TMZ is reporting on this:
300,000 dead in 4 months
You aināt seen nothing yet, folks.
Oddly, Trump will lose Houston and Harris County by a good margin.
And, hardly even the window dressing mentioned in this thread. 1250 tests daily per site/per day. Five-thousand total tests per day-- in a metro area with a population of nearly 6 million.
Iām happy for the people it will help.
Disgusted by the bare minimal effort from the federal and state government to help save lives.
Nope. Senators complained, sites stayed open. Itās in the story. (And Iām in Texas, where it was in every paper.)
4 additional sites in a state the size of TXā¦ BFD will not even be a drop in the needed bucket.
