The office of Governor Abbott of Texas has verified that he tested positive for COVID-19. This in spite of the fact that he not only was vaccinated, but has gotten a third vaccine booster shot. This should make him realize just how dangerous the new Delta variant of the virus really is, but it hasn't.
He still opposes both vaccine and mask mandates in the state -- even in our schools to protect children. He knows how dangerous the virus is, but thinks his political stance is more important than protecting the citizens of the state he is supposed to be leading.
He's receiving monoclonal antibody infusions to protect himself from getting even sicker and possibly requiring hospitalization. This same treatment is not available to the millions of Texans with no health insurance. And he continues to oppose expanding Medicaid to give those Texans the insurance they need.
Abbott shows that he doesn't care about the health or lives of Texans. He's only interested in playing to his right-wing extremist base.
