Okay Dr. HKS, explain why in our county there have been less than 60 confirmed cases of CV19, and no deaths, and actually very few people are wearing masks. I haven't wore a mask once.
Personally, I think you actually enjoy perpetrating this hoax, and spreading fear. Several times you have been proven wrong about your "predictions" by others here.
Maybe someone will rat you out and hopefully the AMA will investigate you and pull your license to practice medicine. You're worse than a troll. You're a con man and a quack.
I think I already may have had it, but if not, I'd almost just as soon as work towards herd immunity...
Let's keep this thread for Saxet...there's already one for the Chinese fluI agree.
But at a decreased un-accelerating pace.
We'll be fortunate to have a safe and effective vaccine by 2022-23. Doubtful then.
Texas has maybe 2% of us with solid IgG levels. We don't really know, as no test is readily available en mass. A society needs 70% at least to achieve a "herd immunity".

I just want a cool mask. You know vampire fangs or a manny beard, something to go with my steely cold eyes. I want a mask that startles ME when I catch a glimpse of it in the restroom. Oh well, bandanas work too.Okay Dr. HKS, explain why in our county there have been less than 60 confirmed cases of CV19, and no deaths, and actually very few people are wearing masks.

You miss the point of questioning HKS...
OK.
Facts:
Look at the number of SARS-CoV-2 positive patients that are sick enough to be admitted to a hospital down in Bexar County.
Two weeks ago Monday 6/8 there were 96 Bexar County inpatients.
One week ago Monday 6/15 there were 187 Bexar County inpatients.
Today, Monday 6/22 there, as I type this, 446 Bexar County inpatients.
In 14 days there has been a 465% rise in very sick local citizens.
I'm disturbed by the uninformed naïveté of so many like you.
Your kind is why we are about to get shut down again.
Stay at home and, for The Lord's sake wear a mask is you must go out.
Here is the source of my unfortunate and disturbing facts.

Please become an informed citizen.
I spoke late last night to a colleague in Houston at MD Anderson. At the current rate of change of this first wave that is now overtaking our state the 8 county Texas Medical Center hospital system will have no free ICU beds and no available ventilators in 12 days.
Here is supporting data for that frightening scenario.
https://www.tmc.edu/coronavirus-updates/covid-19-testing-trends/
and another:
https://www.tmc.edu/coronavirus-upd...d-19-positive-cases-for-greater-houston-area/
And that site shows that TMC in Houston is doing less testing so please do not believe the nonsense that numbers are up due to more testing. Testing incidence has hardly accelerated. The percentage of positive tests being returned is up about 300% in the last 7-10 days.
University Hospital System in San Antonio shut down all elective surgeries again today.
The other hospital systems in Bexar, just today, banned visitors from their inpatient facilities to restrict exposure to healthcare workers who are dropping to the virus.
Your being offensive does not trouble me.
your being uninformed, however, does.

I spent about 2 hours in a room in full PPE today with an individual trying to depart this earth. He is still alive.
I just want a cool mask. You know vampire fangs or a manny beard, something to go with my steely cold eyes. I want a mask that startles ME when I catch a glimpse of it in the restroom. Oh well, bandanas work too.
Soooo, are you going to be there?According to the SAXET folks, as of yesterday the goose stepping morons of racist, illegal-coddling San Antonio have decreed that ALL SHALL WEAR THE MASKS.
The promoter says that while our wheeled moron, Abbott, has decreed that the government (at any level) cannot make YOU wear a mask, that ******** is allowing micro morons to force businesses to...force everyone to wear a mask on threat of fines.
The Sanctuary City San Antonio "leadership" has decided, backed by our nominally Republican governor, to fine businesses $1,000 per person NOT wearing a fetish mask in that business.
What that means, bottom line here at the bottom, is that everyone WILL be wearing a mask at the July SAXET gun show unless something changes in the next two weeks. Bend the knee, peasants, and obey your masters.
Just printed mine out, see you there.Of course. Handing out these fliers to all!

I have doctor friends that generally disagree with you, FWIW. Also, how many US military service members have tested positive, vs deaths? It's a pretty interesting statistic...You guys make gun owners look like idiots.
I'll abandon this thread after being flabbergasted that anyone could still resist donning a mask to protect their friends and neighbors.
Just watched Mayor Nirenberg's daily update.
Bexar County's seriously-ill-enough-for-hospitalization took the largest leap ever today.
Bexar County ICU COVID admissions took the largest single day leap ever. Again!
This first wave of the pandemic is about to wash over Bexar County with no sign of abating.

Picture that mid-right blue graph when you try to sleep tonight. Be afraid for your friends and neighbors.
