AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin appears to be making progress in its fight to better handle the coronavirus pandemic. Travis County is the fifth largest county in Texas but currently has just the 15th most active cases. It even has fewer cases locally than Hays County.
As of July 26, Travis County has 2,435 active cases. According to data from Austin Public Health, that’s the fewest number of sustained active cases since June 28. That was one day after Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator, warned that the Austin metro had the highest 7-day positivity rate of any metro area in the country.

This story goes against their narrative.
Of course: Liberal government good, conservative government bad. I wouldn’t have expected to see any other result in the MSM. :)
Riots are way up in democratically run cities?
All meaningless.
It’s a function of tests done.
Can’t compare without that data.
“Of course: Liberal government good, conservative government bad. I wouldn’t have expected to see any other result in the MSM. :)”
Why would you believe that Houston and Harris County have conservative governments?
active cases is a huge scam. Los Angeles has 173995 total cases. They are ALL active except the ones that died.

I am not sure Austin is much worse than Houston, Dallas or San Antonio
Sounds like they started wearing masks there. Good for them.
That's because all the AntiFa have left Austin, and gone North for the summer,
or West to join the Seatle/Portland festivities.
And the plague continues on the Western coast, un-abated !
Post of the day! :)
How is that possibly claim ‘control’ when they allow the public to stroll on the streets and highways at night and march without parade permits?
He gave his life to be another soldier in the meme war.
Austin - that liberal enclave in the heart of Texas. Of course they have better control of COVID than any other large Texas city. Because they’re run by liberals, their assertions won’t be questioned by the MSM.
‘Sounds like they started wearing masks there. Good for them.’
love your mask, do you...? love being told what to do by feckless government officials, do you...?
Couldn’t be because all of the cases generated by the rioting have peaked and are on the way back down, could it?
“Was/Were” LMAO!
Probably not doing much testing to keep the numbers down.
Less fat poor people in Travis County who neglect their health would be my guess.
