San Antonio and Bexar County officials held a press conference Wednesday afternoon to discuss the jump in the COVID-19 positivity rate.
The city s positivity rate skyrocketed to 11.2 percent this week – a 5.4 percent higher than the previous week, according to data from the City of San Antonio.
It was a throwback to the daily coronavirus briefings of the past with Mayor Ron Nirenberg joined by County Judge Nelson Wolff, Metropolitan Health District Director Claude Jacob, as well as other city and University Hospital staff to talk to urge residents to get the COVID-19 vaccine – a push aimed particularly at one age group.
