Texas sees highest single day rise in deaths since the middle of March. Hmm...

So the state with the second highest population in the country is 9'th in overall covid deaths.  That's not good?

We'll improve our ranking once everyone is finished bringing out their dead. With a little effort, we can make it to No.1

What and where is the population density. New York City is very dense and not as large a state as Texas.

I would think that the densest areas would be Dallas/Ft Worth followed by Houston then San Antonio off the top of my head.

Seems to me you can put the entire world population in Texas;  &Louisiana border and endother s on the  still have less density than nyc.

Pretty much.  The interstate that runs through my city is numbered every mile.  It starts at the Louisiana border and ends on the other side of El Paso.  One highway.  The mile numbers at the border start at 880.

The NIH suspended the funding for the grant enabling the Wuhan lab viral study of bat transmission of corona viruses. It was the $3.1 million grant approved by the last Prex and was renewable annually as are all NIH grants. Many in academia are upset that we’ve stopped the dollar stream for this research. For starts there are concerns about how safely the lab operates. Specifically they question how waste products are dealt with especially since the ‘wet’ market is located in close proximity to the lab. Of course China won’t allow America any oversight. They want the $ but no scrutiny. And why is America funding research in China for any purpose? China can afford to fund research more than we can and even if we pay we do not seem to get cooperation for our $ anyway. Oh well. Just another strange twist in this episode.

Well you have half the facts. Is.this a transparent attempt to turn this topic political once again?

 

How is NIH funded? How does the NIH grant approval process work? How many years did the grant cover? What was the portion of the NIH grant to total study?

 

What was the expected benefit to US and other grant providing countries from the research?

 

How much was the NIH grant in 2017 to same facility? What was that study.
