There is great news from Dallas County as their COVID-19 threat level has been dropped to green - the lowest of the four-tier color system started at the beginning of the pandemic.
Health director Phillip Huang says this means the county is at a very low threat of transmission.
"We're very happy that the numbers are looking better, but it's a caution because as we're getting further away from when these people got their first doses and got boosted, we know that the protection from the vaccine starts to diminish," Huang said.
He says cases, hospitalizations, and deaths are at some of their lowest numbers since the pandemic began. Huang still urges caution and suggests getting your booster shots.
