were so ill they had to be hospitalized. That's one out of 7 young adults! And that doesn't include those who were sick and miserable for days.

It was 20% in age group 30-49 and 36% hospitalized out of 50-69. ICU admissions and deaths are from these numbers.

For the parents and grandparents these people risk bringing disease home to, 70 and over, 30-55% had to be hospitalized depending on where, and of course ICU and death rates were prohibitive.

These figures aren't the final word, but indicative: This is ILLNESS bringing misery if not death.

So, for everyone wishing this crowd the misery, fear, and whatever they're bring to others, some will regret this, a few deeply, whether they're hospitalized or not. Experts believe CV cases are under-reported and on the upswing in central TX. And this is a particularly irresponsible subset.

Idea: How about if we did NOT pay COVID medical bills for people who frivolously broke social isolation? Wishful thinking, of course, but that'd dim the smiles on a bunch of these stupid faces.

Boomers, Generation X, and Millenials were brought up in a time when pandemics with the impact of the COVID virus were just a couple of paragraphs in high school textbooks, if they were mentioned at all. These guys not only lack any sense of history, but they’re too foolish to check out reliable sources.

I do read my history and I’d rather be prudent than brave.

I fear that more than a few of the folks rallying around Alex Jones and his ilk are about to have a brutal education.

My mother and father who raised me knew polio and TB victims personally. My grandfather died from TB.

The polio vaccine was administered to many of us boomers at a very young age.

My maternal grandmother remembered the 1918 flu pandemic very clearly.

Grifting an anti shutdown rally and then dying of coronavirus that he contracted while grifting at the rally would be the most meta thing that's ever happened.

One of them died. The other is the church lawyer.

It would be awesome if Alex Jones got it, but don't hold your breath. It seems like the RWNJs are pretty much immune...

With our luck they are the asymptomatic types that don't even get sick, but spread it everywhere.

He’s probably more worried about others who drank tap water.
