Patients will stay in their cars and give themselves the test at drive-thru pharmacy windows, and results should be ready in three days. Learn more with The Dallas Morning News.

Dallas County again added fewer new COVID-19 cases than past weeks, with just 185 on Thursday, though seven people died from the virus. Three were living in long-term care facilities, three were hospitalized, and one was found at home. Read on with NBCDFW.

Texas has plans to test all staff and residents in state-run homes for people with disabilities, the Texas Tribune reports, after a previous story said that those individuals would not be tested.

Governor Greg Abbott has ended all COVID-19 related restrictions on air travel, WFAA reports. Previously, anyone who arrived from out of state via airplane was ordered to self-quarantine for 14 days.
