Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced on Wednesday (December 2nd) that the first round of COVID-19 vaccines will be coming to the state very soon.

Should the trauma area Lubbock is a part of see 5 more days straight of a 15 percent+ COVID-19 hospitalization rate, many Lubbock businesses would be closed.

Bars in Texas can reopen beginning October 14th at 50 percent capacity and only if the county judge says it's okay.

The Executive Order goes into effect on July 3rd and is for all Texas counties that have at least 20 positive COVID-19 cases. Children age 10 and below don't have to wear face coverings.

Amid a surge of new COVID-19 cases across Texas, Governor Greg Abbott is pulling back on reopening plans.

Abbott says the safest place to be is at home.

Following Governor Greg Abbott's latest set of executive orders, Joyland Amusement Park in Lubbock will re-open on June 12th, 2020.

Normally, Joyland would have opened for the summer season by now. But the governor's current set of executive orders is keeping amusement parks closed because of the Coronavirus pandemic.

Joyland Amusement Park's president took to social media on Tuesday to garner public support to re-open.
