Williamson County added 175 new coronavirus cases between April 12-14, bringing the total since the start of the pandemic to 38,019, according to Williamson County and Cities Health District data.

The county also added four deaths, bringing the total to 461.

Counted deaths are of those who have COVID-19 listed as a direct cause of death on the death certificate. The total does not include deaths of people who had COVID-19 but died of an unrelated cause, according to the Texas Department of State Health Services dashboard. This method may delay reporting by weeks or even months due to paperwork, county health officials have said.

Williamson County continues to be in the orange phase of community spread, which indicates a high spread level. Local health officials still recommend individuals wear a mask and maintain 6 feet of distance from those not in their household.

According to the dashboard, 27.95% of Williamson County residents are fully vaccinated, and 44.01% have received at least one shot. Williamson County Judge Bill Gravell said the county anticipates about 80% of residents will want a vaccine. He also said the county would likely end its most of its mass vaccination sites by Memorial Day.


In addition, about 18% of COVID-19 hospital beds are available, and 15% of COVID-19 intensive care unit beds are available, it said.

The seven-day rolling positive rate, or the rate at which tests for the coronavirus return positive, is 5.85%.
