Numbers rising exponentially are showing more promise in the fight against the effects of coronavirus in Ellis County. The cases continue to rise, while those who have recovered, 109, outnumber the 69 active cases.
A week ago the county had 121 cases, a figure that increased by 58 this week to 179. That ranks No. 29 in the state, where 209 of 254 counties have at least one confirmed case. All this from a virus the World Heath Organization (WHO) said in January could not be spread human-to-human.
