ONE NEW CASE WEDNESDAY

Judge plans to allow bars to go to 50 percent

From County Judge Steve Young Wednesday night:

Wednesday we have one new PCR case and three antigen cases to report.  Those being monitored were increased substantially by fourteen.  No one was admitted to a hospital. We tested six individuals with one positive result.  Thursday we will test at the Fire station in Cameron from 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

 

Governor Abbott issued Executive Order 32, which allows bars to reopen at 50% capacity, on October 14,, so long at the bar is not in a high hospitalization area and the County Judge approves.  Milam County is not in a high hospitalization area and I plan to sign an order to allow the bars in Milam County to reopen, pursuant to restrictions of the Governor’s order.

 

Milam County Cases:

 

  1. Confirmed PCR cases 520 up 1
  2. Confirmed active PCR cases 6 – no change
  3. Confirmed antigen cases 78 – up 3
  4. Confirmed active antigen cases 16 – no change
  5. Monitored individuals 97 – up 14
