Positivity Rate Remains High


San Angelo's post Memorial Day coronavirus explosion waned slightly after peaking with two nursing home cases announcement.  Our community has a long way to go to get below the recommended 5% positivity rate.  Tom Green County is currently at 17% positive since testing began and over 24% positive the last seven days.

Update 8-11-20:  Local Health Authority James Vretis said testing volume is way down, even though our positivity rate remains high.   Did the illness suddenly go away or are public health officials flying blind?  Time will tell.
