Texas Governor Greg Abbott made headlines today by ending a state-wide face mask mandate, and allowing businesses to fully reopen.
But it was an announcement he made at the end of last week that is raising some eyebrows among those waking up to the fact that many seniors are dying soon after being injected with the experimental COVID vaccines.
The Governor announced that the State was deploying 1100 National Guard troops to go door to door to vaccinate seniors who are home-bound this week.
Calling the effort “Save Our Seniors” it is scheduled to be rolled out this week in the following Texas counties:
Aransas, Bastrop, Brewster, Brooks, Brown, Cass, Dallas, Eastland, Freestone, Gray, Hill, Hockley, Hudspeth, Hutchinson, Irion, Lee, McCulloch, Medina, Morris, Panola, Rains, Refugio, Robertson, San Jacinto, Shelby and Webb.
Those counties were chosen based on their regional hospitalization rates, the percentage of seniors over the age of 65 who have been vaccinated there and previous vaccine dose allocations, according to the release.
Abbott said the state hopes to vaccinate at least half of all Texas seniors by the week’s end. (Source.)
