As of Sunday, 7.92 million Texans had been vaccinated, meaning 41 percent of the state’s residents have received at least one shot. Some 4.46 million are fully vaccinated. DSHS announced Friday that more than 2.5 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines are shipping out this week — more than double the previous high. Meanwhile, new COVID-19 cases in Texas dropped again compared to the previous week, with 21,754 reported, down about 20% week to week. The number of deaths dropped to 637 last week, down about 14% from the previous week. Hospitalizations of confirmed COVID-19 patients again dropped, to 2,840 statewide.

McAdams appointed to PUC Gov. Greg Abbott has nominated Will McAdams to the Public Utility Commission, subject to state senate confirmation. McAdams will join the sole remaining member of the three-person commission, Chairman Arthur D’Andrea, who previously announced his resignation but agreed to stay on until Abbott could appoint new members. McAdams is president of the Associated Builders and Contractors of Texas and worked for legislators for more than a decade in various senior staff positions. The PUC came under fire after the disastrous electrical blackouts during the mid-February winter storm, since it has supervisory power over the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, which controls the power grid for most of the state. Nearly half of ERCOT’s 15-member­ board has since resigned. An investigation by the Houston Chronicle indicates nearly 200 people died in the winter storm, primarily from hypothermia or carbon monoxide poisoning. More than 4 million homes in Texas were without power at the peak of the crisis. As State Rep. Rafael Anchia, D­-Dallas, noted in the article, the winter storm death toll was almost double that from Hurricane Harvey in 2017. THE ECONOMIST By Dr. M.

DO YOU HAVE A HEALTHY OR UNHEALTHY TONGUE? The Doctors often test our physical condition by the state of our tongue. For example, Dr. Ryan Kauffman, M. D., ear, nose, and throat specialist said: “Without even asking, I can tell by checking one’s tongue, if a patient is well-hydrated, a tobacco user in any form, uses a retainer, has a autoimmune Gladewater Mirror disease, and the list goes on.”With a deeper significance, the tongue is a register of our spiritual condition. Our words are an index of our moral and spiritual health. If our words are unclean and untrue, it is a sure index of spiritual sickness.
