The trend is very strongly higher for both cases and deaths in Texas.
Hopefully that reverses soon, news from a few minutes ago:
Texas, daily deaths from the infection:
Total of 175,977 cases, as of 3.40pm Texas time
- 2,525 deaths (+44)
- 7,382 current hospitalizations (+478), that is a record high. UP 5,000 odd from only 2 weeks ago.
