I don't know now. My echo-chamber is full of stories such as this one: https://fee.org/articles/texas-hits-reco...trictions/
The raw data, by the government, is available here: https://tabexternal.dshs.texas.gov/t/THD...y&:embed=y
Either way, cases have been falling in Texas since March the 2nd, when the lockdown and mask mandate was lifted. Perhaps not as dramatically as that article by Foundation for Economic Education would lead you to believe, but they are definitely not increasing.
That is just childish. Did you never for a moment consider that although the mandate for masks and social distancing is removed that people will continue to do both anyway? To protect themselves and their nearest and dearest? Did that penny never drop into your cranium and rattle around in it's new spacious environment?
