You’re going back to Apr for that, which doesn’t give a correct picture of the current situation. Using data from yesterday there were 17 deaths in NY and 73 in TX.

Paging Dr. Fauci! According to JHU, NY’s per capita death rate is more than 2X greater than Italy Spain & Britain & more than 8X worse than Florida & 10X worse than Texas. For you to say NY got it done correctly disregards the facts & calls your judgement into question.

  Rand Paul's Jheri curl has pickled his brain.

  Maybe "Senator" Paul is confused regarding which of the "many kinds of per capita" there are?

  On a daily basis, @RandPaul & @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell make me ashamed to be a Kentuckian & furious with the lack of integrity & responsibility, as well a complete disregard for the truth (as indicated by facts, data, & evidence). They need 1 way tickets out of DC, pronto.

  I would really expect a Dr like Rand Paul to be a bit more careful when examining data. But it seems he’s more interested in politics than actually practicing or at least respecting his former profession. Maybe he no longer feels bound by his oath!
