AUSTIN — Texas reported its highest
number of deaths in one day since the
coronavirus pandemic began.
New official state data released on
Thursday showed Texas is now reporting
1,216 deaths — an increase of 58 from
yesterday’s tally.
Previously, Texas had reported as many
as 50 deaths once before, on April
30.
The state also reported its highest one
day jump in positive test. Texas has had
43,851 positive cases reported — a jump
of 1,448 cases. That state’s previous
high was on April 10 when it reported
1,441 positive cases.
Testing also surged on Thursday. The
state reported 35,853 tests, the second
highest number of results reported in a
single day.
The spike in deaths comes as Republican
Gov. Greg Abbott has been trying to
re-open the state’s economy. Last week
he allowed hair salons and barbershops
to reopen and was planning to allow gyms
to open next week. Before that he
allowed restaurants, malls, retail
stores and movie theaters to reopen at
25 percent of their maximum
occupancy.
On Monday, Abbott was scheduled to
announce whether the state had made
enough progress to allow restaurants,
retail stores, theaters, and malls to
increase occupancy to 50 percent.
When Abbott announced the partial
reopening of businesses two weeks ago,
he warned that because the state was
increasing its testing capacity,
logically there would be an increase in
the number of positive cases. During a
television interview in early May,
Abbott said the number of positive cases
is not the key number to watch.
“What really matters are these two
metrics — what is our hospitalization
rate and what is the death rate," Abbott
said on KVUE in Austin.
The state’s hospitalizations have been
on the decline this week. The state
reported 1,648 hospitalizations — the
second straight day that number has
dropped and well down from last week’s
record high of 1,888.
Abbott has said the state still has
plenty of available hospital beds and
ventilators. As of Thursday, Texas was
reporting more than 17,500 hospital beds
available and more than 6,200
ventilators.
The state’s death rate for COVID-19
patients remains at 2.8 percent, the
same percentage it was on May 1. And
Abbott has repeatedly pointed to the
state’s death rate far below what other
states have reported. While Texas has
lost 1,216 people, neighboring Louisiana
with a fraction of the overall
population has reported 2,351 deaths.
Florida has had 1,875 deaths and New
York has had 22,170 deaths.

"If you receive a package that you are

NOT open it, call 911 immediately,"
Austin Police Chief Brian Manley warned.
