Even though the Abilene-Taylor County Health District is running a bit behind in confirming COVID-19 deaths, the agency confirmed seven new deaths over the last ten days.

The Department of State Health Services has listed Trauma Service K's hospitalization rate above the 15 percent threshold for the second day in a row Wednesday.
