Hopkins County COVID-19 Update: 2 New Cases On August 2, 56 Active
Two new positive COVID-19 cases and no additional patient recoveries were reported for Hopkins County at 5 p.m. Sunday, August 2nd, after one day in which no new cases were reported.
Seven patients were also reported to be in the COVID-19 unit at CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital-Sulphur Springs on August 2. No other information was known of the patients in the CMFH-SS COVID-19 unit at this time.
Of the 154 Hopkins County residents who have tested positive for COVID-19 since mid-March, 98 have recovered, leaving 56 active cases of COVID-19 in Hopkins County on August 2nd.
When Texas Department of State Health Services and Texas Health and Human Services Commission last updated their COVID-19 fatality data dashboard at 3.20 p.m. Aug. 1, it still showed one COVID-19 fatality for Hopkins County. The DSHS “COVID-19 Total Fatalities by County” spreadsheet shows the fatality to have been assigned to Hopkins County on July 23.
Hopkins County Emergency Management officials continue to report that neither local emergency management officials nor regional DSHS officials have received any information regarding any COVID-19 deaths of Hopkins County residents.
DSHS on July 30 reported a manual check revealed an “automation error” Wednesday, which caused 229 fatalities that did not list COVID-19 as the direct cause of death to be counted in the state data. This follows DSHS’ shift in the way COVID-19 deaths are determined; death certificate data is now used to count fatalities as of Monday.
The Aug. 1 report stated that the cumulative fatality counts for July 27-29 were corrected, but DHSH reports numbers could rise as more death certificates are filed daily across the state. No new data was posted Aug. 2 on the DSHS/HHS COVID-19 dashboard “due to a scheduled upgrade to the system that processes electronic lab reports.” Sunday’s data will be posted along with Monday’s data in the files on the “Additional Data tab” at the bottom of the COVID-19 dashboard.
HHS’ COVID-19 page also continues to show only one worker at one Sulphur Springs nursing home facility as having tested positive for COVID-19 as of July 17; that was an active case on July 13 and continued to be an active case on July 17, according to the HHS report. All data in this report is 2 weeks behind so that information self-reported by these facilities can be entered and error-checked.
No nursing home or assisted living facility in Hopkins County has reported having any residents test positive for COVID-19 either in the past or through July 17, according to the HHS reports. Data for nursing homes and assisted living facilities will only be posted Monday-Friday.
Those who check the DSHS/HHS site regularly for case counts will want to note DSHS will not be posting any new data on the COVID-19 dashboard on Sunday, Aug. 2, “due to a scheduled upgrade to the system that processes electronic lab reports.” The upgrade should “enable incoming lab results to be processed faster and maintain compatibility with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.” Sunday’s data will be posted along with Monday’s data in the files on the “Additional Data tab” at the bottom of the COVID-19 dashboard.

Granbury Woman Jailed On Controlled Substance Charge
A 36-year-old Granbury woman was jailed Friday morning on a controlled substance charge, according to arrest reports.
Hopkins County Sheriff‘s Sgt. Tanner Steward stopped at 7:42 a.m. July 31 to check on a vehicle parked in the driveway of a closed business on the north Interstate 30 service road. As he approached, Steward reported seeing a woman making furtive movements in the passenger area of the blue Honda Civic.
After contacting the occupant, identified in arrest reports as Kristin Cheree Molder of Granbury, Steward reported seeing a red cut straw which the officer recognized from his training as commonly used to inhale narcotics in the passenger seat. When the sheriff’s officer asked permission to search the car, the woman allegedly began using her cell phone, then refused to allow a search.
She was reportedly asked to exit the car. As the driver’s side door opened, the deputy alleged seeing a glass pipe with a clear tube, a kind commonly used to smoke methamphetamine in plain sight. Based on the visible items of suspected drug paraphernalia, the sheriff’s officer conducted a probable cause search of the car. He alleged finding a clear bag containing a crystal-like substance that field tested positive for methamphetamine.
Consequently, Molder was placed under arrest. Molder and the contraband were taken to the county jail, where the suspected methamphetamine and packaging weighed 0.43 grams, resulting in Molder being booked for possession of less than 1 gram of a Penalty Group 1 controlled substance, according to arrest reports. HCSO Deputy Jason Lavender reportedly assisted with the stop and arrest.
The 36-year-old Granbury woman remained in Hopkins County jail Saturday morning. Bond was set at $5,000 on the controlled substance charge, according to jail reports.

Help-A-Child Benefit Still Scheduled, But May Require Modifications For 2020
With so many annual event events being canceled or postponed, organizers for the annual Help-A-Child Benefit report the 2020 event is, at this point, still planned to take place as scheduled in 2020, but could look a little different.
“This year’s plans are to continue on with the activities. They may be a little bit limited. They may be a little bit changed from last year. With everything going on this year, we will keep you updated to those changes on our Facebook page,” Clay Bartley said Friday evening, July 31, in Facebook announcement.
Help-A-Child was started in a more than a dozen years ago by area Masons to benefit agencies dedicated to helping abused, neglected children or those in need of certain medical assistance, and is typically held the third Saturday in October. The Help-A-Child Benefit has traditionally has included a tractor pull, chili and brisket cook-off. There’s also an ag mechanics project competition and auction, and big ticket raffle. Bartley showed off a few of the items donated toward the latter.
Como-Pickton FFA constructed a heavy, duty bumper pull utility trailer for the cause. The trailer is 77 inches wide and 12 feet long, has 15-inch wheels and tires, square tubing, with custom rails big enough for 2-inch tie-down straps all the way around the trailer, a spare tire, bulldog hitch and fold-up ramp. It is wired up and ready to go, and includes LED lighting and reflective safety tape all the way around it
“This is truly a heavy, duty trailer. If I’m not mistaken, it weighs about 17 hundred pounds,” Bartley said. “It is super nice.”
A few local businesses are helping provide a brand new 2020 Polaris Sportsman 570 4-wheeler with electronic injection, 4-wheel drive, independent rear suspension, front bumper, and front and rear utility racks for the annual raffle.
Raffle tickets are in the process of being made and will soon be available from any of the event coordinators, staff or helpers, including Clay Bartley, Wade Bartley, Jim Wright, Bill Holden and Tommy Anderson. Any businesses interested in helping sponsor or donating to Help-A-Child Benefit, a 501(c)3 organization, can contact Bartley or send a message through the Help-A-Child Benefit Facebook page
