Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information

Coronavirus (COVID-19) is a respiratory illness that is spreading from person to person in parts of the United States. The risk of infection with COVID-19 is higher for people who are close contacts of someone known to have COVID-19, for example healthcare workers, or household members. Other people at higher risk for infection are those who live in or have recently been in an area with an ongoing spread of COVID-19.

Williamson County & Cities Health District is closely monitoring the rapidly evolving situation in coordination with the Texas Department of State Health Services, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and local and regional public health and healthcare agencies.

If you or someone you know is feeling overwhelmed by the COVID-19 pandemic, help is available. Call the toll-free Texas Health and Human Services COVID-19 Mental Health Support Line at 833-986-1919 to speak with a mental health professional 24/7.

Family Emergency Room Reopens Testing for COVID-19

Family Emergency Room Reopens Testing for COVID-19

Williamson County and Family Emergency Room are once again accepting applications for people to be tested for COVID-19.  
 
The partnership between Williamson County and Family Emergency Rooms for COVID-19 testing has been overwhelmingly successful. For that reason, Williamson County temporarily removed the online testing portal from its website on May 20, 2020, due to a backlog of testing requests. Those tests have been scheduled, and Family Emergency Room is able to accommodate new appointments at this time. 
 
Priority will be given to people who currently are exhibiting symptoms. Asymptomatic individuals, who are not displaying symptoms but have been exposed to COVID-19, also can request a test; however, they may be asked to wait until a testing time is available. All Williamson County residents wanting a COVID-19 test must first fill out the online assessment tool at https://forms.wilco.org/forms/COVID19Testing.  
 
As of June 23, Family Emergency Room has performed 1,921 tests with 60 positives, with 40 positives in June alone. 
 
The County thanks everyone for their patience as staff continues to fulfill the need for more testing.
