City of Lubbock confirmed 358Additional COVID-19 Cases, 11 Deaths



As of 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, December 13, 2020, the City of Lubbock confirmed 358 new cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19), 239 recoveries and 11 additional deaths. The total number of cases in Lubbock County is 36,611: 4,241 active, 31,912 listed as recovered and 458 total deaths.


Since the 4:00 PM cut off yesterday, 8 cases were identified as duplicates or reassigned to the correct jurisdiction. These have been adjusted into the cumulative totals.


As of 4:00 p.m. there are a combined 30 open hospital beds and 30 patients holding for beds at University Medical Center and Covenant Health System. Note that this reflects staffed beds open to receive patients and differs from the available bed count shown on the DSHS and the City of Lubbock dashboards. These dashboards count all available beds, including specialty beds, such as pediatrics, PICU, outpatient, psychiatric and others, as well as hospitalized patients in the 22 county Trauma Service Area.


Lubbock remains above the 15% threshold where the percentage of COVID-19 confirmed patients in regional hospitals as a percentage of available hospital beds. Today's COVID-19 hospitalization percentage is 28.09%. Trauma Service Area B will remain under the additional restrictions outlined under Governor Abbott’s Executive Orders until we remain below 15% for seven consecutive days.
