HOUSTON – Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner said Monday that a curfew is among the “limited options” that he has available to slow the spread of coronavirus in the city as officials brace for an increase in cases after Thanksgiving travel. Turner reported an additional 685 COVID-19 cases in the city and a positivity rate of 8.4%, which is slightly lower than last week. The mayor said November was the second busiest month for testing at city-affiliated testing sites since the pandemic began. “If by chance you see me coming in, I’m not coming in there for a drink,” Turner said. He asked business owners to work with city officials in order to ensure that social-distancing and occupancy requirements are observed.

HOUSTON – Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner has issued a statement following the curfews issued in Bexar County and in San Antonio.

Dr. Varon says our focus needs to be on educating others about the deadly virus. The establishments may continue to offer drive-thru, curbside or takeout service after 10 p.m. and resume dine-in service at 6 a.m. during the curfew period.
