For weeks, county officials have warned residents not to be alarmed as the number of cases is increasing. They attribute it to the availability of testing centers in the county.

If you missed some of the other testing locations but are interested in being tested, the Health Center of Southeast Texas is holding a free testing site for the uninsured or underinsured. See the flyer below for details.
