For the first time in about two and a half months, Denton County is reporting an increase in COVID-19 cases.

"Enough to give us pause," says County Health Director Matt Richardson. "It was not a huge increase, it was an increase of about 30 cases. That is something we're continuing to monitor, as we have since the beginning of the pandemic."

Richardson says the blip serves as a reminder of the importance of vaccines.
