Gov. Greg Abbott was a target of leftists recently when he announced the end of lockdowns. Biden said the Governor was guilty of “Neanderthal thinking.” Ironic coming from feeble unfit Joe. Will he apologize now?

Leftists on cable called him anti-science.
Two weeks later, it has worked. The numbers of cases and hospitalizations are the lowest they’ve been in 17 consecutive days with a 100% reopening.
Texas’ COVID numbers fall for the 17th consecutive day following Gov. Abbott’s 100% reopening and lifting the mask mandate.
Today Texas recorded the lowest 7-day Covid positivity rate since that data began being calculated: 5.43%.
We also recorded the largest daily number of vaccines administered to Texans: 342,849.
More Texans getting vaccines will keep down the positivity rate.
Always voluntary.

Today Texas hit an all-time recorded low for the 7-day Covid positivity rate: 5.27%.
It’s been below 6% for 5 days & below 10% for an entire month.
Covid hospitalizations declined again–now at the lowest level since October 3rd.
Vaccinations continue to increase rapidly.

The same thing is going on in Mississippi.
