SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio Mayor Ron Nirenberg and Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff briefed the community on the local response to COVID-19 in their daily Sunday evening briefing.
Nirenberg reported 173,154 total COVID-19 cases and 2,143 total deaths in Bexar County, up from 174 new cases as of Sunday. Eleven new deaths have been reported today.
The low number of cases is due to the city not having received a report from the state lab, Nirenberg said. And the total number of cases includes a backlog of cases dating back to July 4.
The 7-day moving average of cases is 1,405.
City officials also reported that 1,169 patients have been hospitalized, 385 in intensive care and 247 on ventilators. 12% of the manned beds and 51% of the fans are available.
