      Texas has recorded more than 2,670 deaths and more than 200,000 confirmed cases of the virus. While rising case numbers partly reflect more testing, Texas has a positive test rate of 13.5%, more than double the rate from a month ago. http://apne.ws/pRzWDXQ pic.twitter.com/s1rX3dawGY

          This is a wake up call to a country with soaring rates of obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease. The healthy survive. We need to get serious about our national health.
