Coronavirus Comments

I'm changing this blog over to my "Coronavirus In Texas" personal project.  I don't want to fuel my Facebook feed with all the things I read and research, but my mind still needs an outlet... so this blog will be my nattering space and data analysis space.

A number of folks on Facebook are also tracking this.

From the "Unintended Consequences of COVID-19 File" a quote from the Dallas County website: Dallas County is cancelling all jury trials for Dallas County Criminal Courts, Civil Courts and Justice of the Peace (J.P.) Courts through May 8, 2020. Dallas County citizens summoned to appear at the Frank Crowley Criminal Courthouse, at the George Allen Civil Courthouse, or a J.P. Court prior to May 8, 2020 should not report nor call to reschedule their service.

All Dallas County Tax Offices are closed to the public for face-to-face transactions until further notice. Please see the tax website for more information."

Now https://www.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6 is showing individual spots in Texas.  Most useful.


Dallas numbers are the highest in the state in spite of Houston being the first area where coronavirus was found.
