Abbott Deploying “Surge Response Teams”

Governor Abbott deployed a “surge response team” to look at spiraling coronavirus rates near Texas panhandle meatpacking plants. It is in place of re-imposing stricter stay-at-home rules for Amarillo and surrounding communities to deal with growing outbreaks of COVID 19. The teams consist of health officials, emergency response workers, and the National Guard. They deal with Coronavirus “flare-ups,” and “hot spots.”
