The governor noted that Texas has a balance of personal protective equipment and can perform over 100,000 COVID-19 tests a day. The governor's office press release states that there have been investments in various antibody therapeutic drugs to keep Texans out of hospitals. It adds that more than 2.5 million Texans who tested positive for COVID-19 had recovered since the pandemic began. It also states that the COVID-19 case count is the lowest since November, owing to its residents' daily habits.
