'It is now the time to open Texas 100%,' said Gov. Greg Abbott, who announced Tuesday that all state businesses will be able to operate at full capacity and that residents will no longer be required to wear masks to visit them

in July, as Covid-19 cases and hospitalizations spiked. More than 44,000 Texans have died of Covid-19.

Some Democrats said the latest move to reopen was reckless. Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo, the elected executive of the county that includes Houston, said the decision would slow the state’s return to normalcy. “Every time public health measures have been pulled back, we’ve seen a spike in hospitalizations,” Ms. Hidalgo said. “We’re inching closer to the finish line of this pandemic—now is not the time to reverse the gains we’ve worked so hard to achieve.”

Sounds like a disaster! Don't let your guard down, this virus continues to mutate.

I don't understand how this seems like the right move for Texas. Stupid.

Open borders in Texas is sad 😢

Perfect timing! 🤔🙄COVIDIOT

Doctors and the globalist are coming for him.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣🙀🙀🙀😸😸😸😸🤔🤔🤔

Thinning the herd?

Don't MESS with Texas! 😷 MaskOff

He is a horse’s Ass! Certainly not a scientist!

Good to hear. This thing so overblown. Take responsibility for yourself and move on. If you have health issues then wear a mask

Guess we won’t be vacationing in Texas.

Hopefully this is prudent. There have been over 500K deaths and many may have survived had it not been for misguided information and improper handling of the pandemic.

Time to cut off handouts to texas...

TwitterGov so what if I haven’t read the article before I retweet. Who made Twitter a referee. Stop trying to engineer society. Stick to technology.

About freaking time!! Well done Texas!

Looks like GregAbbott_TX decided to go full hunger games with Texas residents... guess letting people die because of freezing temperatures wasn't enough.

THE BLIZZARD 🌨 WAS JUST THE BEGINNING..........WITH THIS ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE GOVERNOR,THE FINAL JUST ARRIVED.

God, I love Texas!

Idiot

yup---Texas knows what it is doing---not only are they medical people, but also electrical engineers and plumbers

From the people who couldn't handle the responsibility to ensure the power grid was weather resistant and have failed miserably in their handling of the pandemic but listen to them now ? Now is the time to wait to be vaccinated not risk another outbreak . Vote the liar out .

Infections for everyone! Yay!

Abbott issues a death sentence to Texans with his desperate attempt to gain political favor. CDC and Biden clearly recommend not dropping restrictions. How many in Texas will die because of Abbott’s political self interest? GOP again failing Texas.

Dont listen to him Texas, he's trying to kill you !

Why are republicans always so consistently anti-science?

Gradually lifting restrictions is what adults do.

Thanks to texas, abbott and tx GOP for helping to create and spread new variants and wiping out vaccine progress. Guess all the recent post storm grid failure suffering wasn't enough for ya.

Reckless.

Way too early!

Hundreds of thousands of Texans have no running water to wash hands, because Abbott & other GOP officials deregulated causing the suffering. Now GOP works to finish them off ff w/Covid and other life threatening infections. Vote out misanthropes before they kill you.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Still reeling from no power freezing literally to death no drinking water now is the time to restart spreading a deadly virus Abbott is a fucking lunatic killing Texans at an alarming rate good luck with that FREEDOM 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

Can we build a wall around Texas? And shut it off from the rest of the US?

well I'm sure there will be businesses that will maintain a mask policy. I'm sure there will be a person that will have a problem with that as well. It will be captured in video

Congratulations on making it through the storm. Greg Abbott will murder you now.

After how well they handled that ice storm, I would definitely defer to his judgment! Great job Texas!

I think GovAbbott only lifted the statewide mandate for masks, but businesses and other entities in Texas can still require masks and other mitigation protocols for their guests, customers, employees, etc.

Greg Abbot must be proud of having not one but two man made humanitarian crisis in the state of Texas.

Just left a message at the governor's office (512-463-2000) asking him to let us know what his target kill rate is this spring, since GOP deregulation apparently didn't kill enough constituents in February. Give him a call to ask!

Somebody gotta be the guinea pigs. Better Texas than my state.

Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves has announced the state is lifting its county mask mandates and allowing businesses to operate at full capacity starting tomorrow

Cue a COVID19 surge in Texas - then spread to surrounding states

Have a good spring, Texas.

GovAbbott , while we are still unraveling the power grid mess let’s open the state wide up! You have mishandled everything else! Where are the vaccines for the rest of us under 65. I for one Hope to have both a vaccine AND a new Governor by 2022!

Through this whole crisis Republicans have consistently jumped the gun on reopening, which has only served to worsen the crisis that they’re constantly railing against in the first place

Fun... who is gonna run out to a crowded Costco with a bunch of maskless a-holes spewing covid everywhere?

I wonder if anyone can predict what will happen in Texas in a few weeks, especially with variants now abundant. If only there was data on this sort of thing. FREEDUMB!!

He's allowing business's and individuals to act for themselves. If people do not like it they can stay away. I am not saying one way is right or wrong, but allowing businesses and individuals to choose for themselves is right.

Obviously

Instead of blaming your own people blame China. That goes for all you folks calling him names.

Stop all planes, trains, and automobiles from entering or leaving Texas. Full stop. Let them rot while the rest of the country tries to get better.

This is the type of irresponsible leadership that has cost the lives of half a million Americans. Republicans are just awful in everything that they do.

Pretty much all of Texas right now. Best of luck, y’all. See ya. Wouldn’t want to be in your shoes.

We'll talk again end of March ...

Recently my friend's baby was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia & needs a stem cell transplant. Jason & his wife are first-time parents caring for a sick baby & could use some help. If you are in a place to donate or share, it would be appreciated.

What are the requirements to be dumb?

Governor Abbott, like Trump, is a murderer and a moron.
