Newly Reported Texas Virus Cases Top 5,300; COVID-19 Hospitalizations Also Up – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

The Texas Department of State Health Services reports 5,335 new coronavirus cases Wednesday and an additional 107 deaths due to COVID-19, the illness caused by the virus. The state health department is also reporting another increase in hospitalizations. That new cases brought the total number of Texas cases since tracking of the pandemic began in March to 748,697, with a death toll of 15,711, the DHS reported. However, the true number of cases is likely higher though because many people haven't been tested and studies suggest people can be infected and not feel sick. The health department also estimated 69,767 active cases of the virus, including 3,344 current hospital patients. The number of patients had been on the decline through much of September before beginning to cl...

Also on Tuesday, a public university in North Carolina mourned the death of a student from complications that followed a covid-19 diagnosis. As colleges across the country resume classes this fall, the incidence of virus cases is being closely watched to see if universities are increasing the spread of the novel coronavirus — and what students and school officials can do to try to prevent that. About 45 percent of 18- to 22-year-olds are enrolled in college, according to the CDC. Colleges have crafted a wide array of plans, including efforts to starkly reduce communal housing, ramp up tes...

John Cenas 6 Funniest TV Appearances – CinemaBlend

John Cena Hosts SNL December 10, 2016 was a fateful day, friends. This was the day that we all learned our lesson, and found out that Mr. John Felix Anthony Cena Jr. would refuse to hold back, no matter how ridiculous the material was that he'd been given. While Cena did a lot of amazing work when he hosted Saturday Night Live, there is simply no sketch which proves this better than "Romance Bookstore," a photo from which you can see above. Honestly, if you aren't already laughing just by looking at that picture, well, I hate to tell you this...but, you're dead inside.
