As viruses, like COVID, evolve and mutate over time, the science community, e.g., Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the National Institute of Health (NIH), and the Federal Drug Administration (FDA), acquire more knowledge at a rapid pace.
Furthermore, as a consequence of how viruses evolve, people should expect change to occur at a rapid pace.
Just as viruses evolve, so does the data.
Epidemiologist Greggory Drew said the numbers would continue to change as data is made available to the health department team.
“We actively review and evaluate the data we are provided, but due to the errors in reporting from testing facilities, we are correcting data as it comes to the health department,” Drew said.
“Since the pandemic began, we’ve been improving our processes and data reporting protocols as we evolve, and new information comes to light,” said Tammy Crumley, Director of Countywide Operations and the Hays County Health Department.

NOTE: Case and fatality information is updated daily at 1 pm and is compiled from information reported publicly by local health departments and through the DSHS public health regions. Counts are current as of that morning.
Because some jurisdictions report cases later in the day, local numbers may be more up to date. County case numbers may occasionally go down if the case investigation determines the person is a resident of another county or state.
Testing numbers show the number of test results for Texas residents reported to DSHS by public health and private labs. They do not include pending tests. Additional testing may be occurring by labs not yet reporting all results to DSHS. Unable to deduplicate total test numbers for private labs.
Demographic data comes from completed case investigations. The majority of cases in Texas are still under investigation.
Hospitalization and hospital capacity numbers are reported daily by hospitals through eight Hospital Preparedness Program providers that coordinate health care system preparedness and response activities in Texas.
