COVID-19 update

On Tuesday, May 5, Gov. Abbott issued Executive Order GA-21 that expanded the reopening of services as part of the safe, strategic plan to Open Texas in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. People over the age of 65 are still strongly encouraged to stay at home as much as possible; to maintain appropriate distance from any member of the household who has been out of the residence in the previous 14 days; and, if leaving the home, to implement social distancing and to practice good hygiene, environmental cleanliness, and sanitation per CDC recommendations.

All individuals are encouraged to wear appropriate face coverings, but no jurisdiction can impose a civil or criminal penalty for failure to wear a face covering.

Dallas County Health and Human Services is currently reporting a total of 19 confirmed COVID-19 cases in Addison since March 27.
