This is a little eye-rolling.
CA had almost 300 cases when Newsome shut down restaurants, etc. on 3/15.
In TX, I started working from home on the 15th - as did pretty much most of the jobs that could in Houston (roads were obviously less busy) and the large cities took the lead in shutting down restaurants, etc. Houston shut things down on 3/20. On 3/20, Texas had almost 200 cases. So, relative to the virus's progress in TX, Houston (which was one of the early cities to be impacted in TX) shut down faster than Newsome shut down CA.
Point being, Texans were not running around, not shut down, hanging out at beaches (has anyone been to a TX beach? You don't hang out there unless it's down south). So it seems like a bad comparison to try to make.
Now do Florida .
