Watch today's press conference from the Victoria Emergency Management Meeting in the Facebook live video above filmed by KIXS 108.

Today's meeting included a discussion about a few new cases locally that brings the total of confirmed cases in Victoria County up to 53. The panel also reminded Texans to wear a mask or facial covering in addition to social distancing whenever they are in a public setting of any kind. So anytime you go outside, you should wear a facial covering for at least the next couple of weeks.

The City of Victoria will be sharing some infographics on how to make your own facial covering. Be sure to check their Facebook page to find that info after watching the video.

Dr. McNeill mentioned that the city is coming up short with testing supplies. Due to this, the city's testing facility will need to shut down until it can be re-supplied.

The latest numbers of confirmed and active cases of COVID-19 can be found at victoriatxoem.org.
