RGV Covid19 cumulative cases look scary. Hidalgo reaches 19,043 and Cameron 15,865. May Hidalgo look more dangerous. However, the number of positive Cases per 10,000 people is more or less similar across the valley. As of yesterday, Hidalgo hit 219, Starr 372, Cameron 374, and Willacy 313. The accumulated death is also on the rise. Also, the most populated Hidalgo looks dangerous. Hidalgo reached 765 and Cameron 405 death. But, the death cases per 10,000 people say that the rate is similar across the valley. Hidalgo has 8, Starr 8, Cameron 9, and Willacy 10 death per 10,000 people. Stay healthy.

The positive cases in Hidalgo County begin to take an exponential growth pattern. Still not that fast compared to the population. Stay safe RGV.
