The City of Laredo has provided a list of places where people can get tested for the coronavirus.

The City of Laredo and Webb County are reminding residents near the Highway 359 corridor to continue to boil their water.

The coronavirus has claimed a few more lives in the Laredo-Webb County area putting our death toll at 43.

As of Friday's media briefing, Laredo Medical Center is at 100 percent capacity in the COVID intensive care unit with 20 patients in 20 beds.

Doctor Trevino pointed out that these are not normal circumstances, and with Regent Care under an official quarantine, the Health Department steps in to make the decision if a resident can leave.

Along with Regent Care, the additional two nursing homes were quarantined for also having positive cases of COVID-19 inside the home.

The Food and Drug Administration adds five more products to the list of hand sanitizers that contain methanol, a substance that can be toxic when absorbed through the skin or swallowed.

An increasingly hot and increasingly dry airmass lies above our shallow layer of humid gulf air.

With the new school year exactly one month away, one local educator is concerned about how that might look like come August.

Laredo Medical Center distributed care packages in a drive by parade Thursday morning.

As part of the order, all local schools shall reopen through virtual, remote, or distance learning only.
