BONHAM â A spike of 20 Covid-19 cases in Fannin County was the result of testing in the Texas Department of Criminal Justiceâs Choice Moore Transfer Facility in Bonham rather than rapid spread in the community.
Fannin County Judge Randy Moore told commissioners Tuesday the jump from nine cases to 29 startled him Saturday, and he set out to determine where that was happening. Moore met with Emergency Management coordinator Troy Hudson, who started making phone calls to area nursing homes, clinics and Texoma Medical Center to find out what happened.
âWe didnât get any â nobody. Nothing,â Moore said, adding Dr. Joel Massey suggested he check with the state prisons.
