While you are trying to think of how that has any meaning, could you explain why the major drop in texas was in February?
Texas Covid cases going down after relaxing mask law coupled with multiple factors
- Thread starter Phil C. McNasty
- Start date
Mask use is at 80%. Are you claiming that it used to be 100%.
You missed the point but if you want to go down that rabbit hole, they also are farther on the vaccination run than we are!
Mask use was the law. Do I think it was 100%, probably not
But it was most likely over 98%
Yes, because having around 40% of your country vaccinated seems the be the threshold level for herd immunity

Chile has one of the world’s best vaccination rates. Covid is surging there anyway
You brought up the fact that their cases are slightly lower than Ontario, if true, and not manipulated! Is Ontario 40% into vaccinations? If you are going to throw up Chile, I'll counter it with Israel.Yes, because having around 40% of your country vaccinated seems the be the threshold level for herd immunity

Israel is top of the world right now though. They are over 60% vaccinated and doing great.

So apparently around 60% is needed before cases go down, and I suspect we'll be there in the fall sometime (assuming no new variants fuck it all up)

That's a pipe dream. What proof do you have of compliance at a level that was probably higher than anywhere else in N. America?
You use Texas as a model.......Really?? They have over 49,800 deaths from Covid-19. Double that of the whole of Canada. Their Infections are around 2.86 Million. Moreover, at the peak of their 2nd wave, they have had over 29,000 infections in one day.
But the latest from Texas is:

Expect the rates to continue to surge when they have these lax idiotic regulations or lack of it:

The Texas Rangers became the first pro sports team to host a full crowd for a game in North America, though some say it was too soon to do so.

That isn't how the R rate works.
Also masks are just one factor.
However I see you continue to misuse graphs when it has been explained to you, and you just ignore polls when it doesn't suit you so I am guessing you are like those jebus cultists who insist that the bible is without error when contradictions are pointed out to them.
Can you explain why human beings have a head & a body & the existence of the universe?
Great, so if new Texas cases go up again can I use that excuse as well, that other factors are involved??
You are completely clueless as to the point of this thread. We are discussing masks laws which were relaxed on March 10th and its effects on their daily new infection rate.You use Texas as a model.......Really?? They have over 49,800 deaths from Covid-19. Double that of the whole of Canada. Their Infections are around 2.86 Million. Moreover, at the peak of their 2nd wave, they have had over 29,000 infections in one day.

We're not discussing total deaths from Covid, we're not discussing the peak of their 2nd wave (which was in January of 2021), and you are also cherry-picking one day which is WAY too small of a sample size.
In other words, your post one GIANT PILE of motherfucking FAIL
You made the claim. I have the legitimate right to ask you to back it up. I guess you don't have any because you'd post your proof if you had any and usually do with your graphs etc. Since you don't have anything to show us I guess that we can disregard your post as BS.
I think you're full of shit half the time too. Remember when you said most people in China wear masks, and I posted all those pics of Chinese people not wearing masks and concerts and beerhalls?? Remember that?? Want me to report them so I can embarrass you again??
