Hospital workers at the University of Texas Southwestern just announced they believe Texas is on track to have the same high number of hospitalizations in October 2021 as there were in January of 2021 and in the summer of 2020.

He feels like it’s time to switch things up and talk about the health of his customers in North Texas. Williams is a man whose conversations are usually about cooking chicken because he is the president and founder of Williams Chicken. “Anything that anyone can do, raffles, I’m all in favor of that,” said Hiawatha Williams, who is a fan of the incentives being offered.
Some of the other rewards he's thrown in are concert tickets and a $1,500 gift card. Getting a shot to fight COVID-19 means you have a shot at winning round-trip tickets for an international flight.
