COVID-19 Is Still With Us

Austin (AP) – Newly reported COVID-19 cases in Texas have fallen just short of the state average for the past seven days. However, the state’s daily COVID-19 death toll was significantly above average. About 3,200 new cases, plus 273 cases previously unreported, fell two cases short of the state’s rolling seven day average calculated by Johns Hopkins University researchers. But the state’s 83 new COVID-19 deaths reported Friday in Texas were well above the 61 death, seven day rolling average. The state estimated almost 65,000 active COVID-19 cases Friday. More than 2,900 COVID-19 sufferers are hospitalized in Texas.
