Take precautions amid significant measles outbreak
DeTar Healthcare System is urging residents in Victoria and the Crossroads area to take proactive steps to protect themselves and their families as Texas experiences a significant measles outbreak. The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) has confirmed 124 measles cases in the state since late January, and the first death, an unvaccinated school-aged child, was reported on February 25. The outbreak has been centered in the South Plains and Panhandle regions, but serves as a strong reminder of the importance of vaccination and vigilance across all of South Texas. 03/05/2025 03:55 PM

GOD first...Heavenly Father, sometimes we think we ask in vain about our problems and ask for things we may not expect to be granted. Yet, we still try. Lord, give us hope and strength to reach out and help us to not give up. We ask in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. 03/05/2025 03:55 PM
