Texas is making a convention center into a hospital in El Paso.

Texas is still a ways away from its peak of 10,000 new cases a day (in mid-July), but of course the geographic distribution of those cases within Texas may have changed.

Quote:El Paso County Judge Ricardo Samaniego on Sunday afternoon ordered a 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew daily due to El Paso's coronavirus crisis.
The curfew will be in effect for both the county and city starting Sunday night and continuing for two weeks. Law enforcement agencies will enforce the curfew along with the face mask requirement and other mandates, he said.
The judge said El Paso's sheriff, police chief and constables had all been directed to enforce the orders, which he indicated has the support of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.

No problem with the common sense of the order, but where on God's green earth does a judge get the power to do this?
I wouldn't give you two cents for all your fancy rules if, behind them, they didn't have a little bit of plain, ordinary, everyday kindness - yeah, and a little looking out for the other fella, too.
