According to a report from CNN, the same can be said for the state of Texas, as it’s one of only three U.S. states that is still seeing a decline in coronavirus cases. This is compared to last week when the five-day average of cases in the U.S. “rose to a level not seen since August.”
On Saturday, the state of Texas reported 3,346 new cases and 3,660 previous cases that had been unreported, for a total of 7,006 cases, according to The Associated Press.
