City hopes businesses can reopen soon By Darren Dunn
the seven here in the community. We have one hospitalized in Seguin at this time," said Parker.
(Seguin) -- The Seguin City Council is watching closely to see how the state proceeds with its plans for reopening the Texas economy. The council received an update on the latest local and statewide response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Parker thanked the community for taking the necessary steps to try to reduce the spread of the virus. He says those actions are working, but he says everyone has to continue to do their part to keep those numbers down.
City Manager Steve Parker says Governor Greg Abbott has started the first phase of reopening Texas. That includes easing restrictions on hospitals and other medical facilities that will allow more medical procedures to be done. The governor is also allowing all retail establishments to open using a curbside or to-goonly format. Parker says many local stores are already offering curbside services, so that might not have a huge impact in Seguin. But he says the governor is expected to offer more strategies next week about how to get the state's economy back up and running. "There will be a new executive order coming out, that will really address how we might start to see the slow opening of businesses going forward. What initiatives will that have to be. I think a lot of the community and a lot of the state clamoring for services like hair salons and nail salons and clothing stores -- all those types of things to come open, sooner than later and how we do that. What has to be in place? Will people have to wear masks? Will they have to be able to sanitize their hands? Hopefully, we can get all those types of things looked at and come up with a good plan for ourselves. We don't know how much of the initiatives, he will put back on the local governments -- the counties and the cities. We do feel that it is going to be varied, because there are

different communities that are impacted right now at a very different level than other communities," said Parker.
governor has a good task force and comes up with some reasonable ways to get these people up and running," said Keil.
Mayor Don Keil says he hopes that the governor can find a way to allow more people to go back to work. He says too many people are suffering because they can't open their businesses.
The governor has said that more of his plan will be revealed on Monday, and he has insisted that they will make decisions to get Texas open again, while also keeping people safe. Staying safe was also part of the message from the city of Seguin Tuesday night. The city manager told the council that Seguin this week has picked up a couple of new cases, which also pushes up the overall number for Guadalupe County.
"I've had a lot of personal services people -- the hair dressers and so forth -- really (ask about this). Hopefully, they can get back to work, and the restaurant people as well. All of these great small businesses that we have, and I just cry for them, because they have their lives wrapped up in these places and they are just treading water and it's from nothing that they did. Hopefully, the government can come through with some loans. Plus, I hope the
"Guadalupe (County) has increased from 40 cases to 63 cases in a two week time period. Seguin had a case today (and) that brough us to seven. We know of at least one more. We have had three recover, of
"We just can't become too comfortable with this pandemic and we need to make sure that we are still following all these things. I still encourage people to be very courteous and gracious at the grocery stores, and (don't be) reaching around people. I still see it. The stores are packed and we just have to be really courteous and mindful of those situations. You may not have the virus, or you may have it and not know it, and be spreading it to people," said Parker. Councilwoman Jet Crabb agreed. She says it's important that they stress that people follow the suggested guidelines. She says if we work together, we can expedite our ability to get through this crisis. "Our total success is going to depend, I think, on how people still obey the rules. If the store or wherever you are, is encouraging you to wear a mask, wear one. Because if everybody wears it, that protects everybody. It's very disheartening to see some people that seem oblivious to what we've been in," said Crabb. Mayor Keil says they are all eager to hear the governor's additional plans on Monday. He says he hopes more people in Seguin, and across the state, will be able to return to work. He says if that doesn't happen, the city may need to look at ways that they might be able to help some of those businesses in the near future.

Local artist still hitting the canvass, one sidewalk at a time Artist adding a little color to the word ‘quarantine’ artwork came directly from being quarantined. She says art is an expression – an expression that knows no quarantine.
By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera (Seguin) -- Families in one local neighborhood just can’t wait to take a walk around the block.
"I'm basically just adding color to this quarantine because everybody has been locked up in their houses but in my neighborhood, I've noticed more and more people out walking and I just kind of wanted to add to that a little bit. I can't sew so I can't make masks and a lot of other things that people are doing. I'm either not capable of and I'm not technically an essential employee so I've just been trying to find the way to use the skills that I've been given to brighten up peoples’ days or help in this very confusing time and God just said 'you can do art so find a way to show that,’" said Adams.
That's because their neighbor, Artist Robyn Adams has turned their sidewalks into an art gallery. Chalk art is the talk among neighbors in the Meadows subdivision as Adams continues to add colorful characters in front of many of their homes. Whether it's Peppa Pig, Pikachu or even Freddy Mercury, the requests for the artwork continues to pour in for Adams who has recently gained a lot attention following the posting of several pictures on social media.
Adams says the COVID-19 pandemic has obviously halted her own work and business. She says being able to still do art has really helped her to get through these times of uncertainty.
Adams says if her neighbors are excited, then she is excited. "I have had more 40 people respond with requests so I'm slowly working down my list and everybody seems to be loving it and apparently, it is drawing attention so hopefully, other artists get involved in their neighborhoods and brighten up this really confusing time," said Adams. Adams says the inspiration for her
school and other things because yes, I'm happy to interact with people but it's more about the kids stumbling upon the artwork and being excited and surprised. It's not about me. It's about them being happy that they saw cool things and getting excited to be out and about because I know some parents are struggling getting their kids away from that tablet and away from the computer to go outside and if they have something to look forward, to it just brightens up the experience instead of everybody dragging everybody else around," said Adams.
Adams says the reactions by families especially the children is worth every drawing. "We are obviously respecting social distancing. Sometimes, people stop and watch. I try to get out earlier in the day when people are busy doing
"I'm a face and body painter so my primary audience won't let me within six feet of them so I don't get to paint faces right now and our industry right now is entertainment and entertainment is the last thing to come back after something like this because it's definitely an elective and I'm watching all of my friends who this is their primary source of
income for their families struggle and it was getting pretty discouraging. I mean it still is at times but I'm hoping that this can (be their way) to give back and interact with their communities," said Adams. Adams is not charging for her artwork. However, she is thankful to those who have offered her donations. She says those donations are used to help buy more art supplies for the sidewalk project. Adams is the owner of Robynisms Face, Body and Home Art.

Seguin FIre/EMS soon to carry whole blood on some emergency calls As Skinner mentioned, there will only be one unit, but it will be immediately available to any patient that needs it. The whole blood, which can be given to any person regardless of blood type, will not be available on some emergency calls. In other business, the council approved funds that will be used to r e p l a c e t h e H VA C s y s t e m a t t h e Central Texas Technology Center in New Braunfels. The CTTC is a joint project between the cities of Seguin and New Braunfels and the Alamo College System.
By Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- If you're injured or in a medical situation that requires you to get blood immediately, you might be able to get that donation faster thanks to the Seguin Fire/EMS Department. Fire Chief Dale Skinner explained that the city is teaming up with the
South Texas Blood and Tissue Center and GRMC to have blood available for patients that need it. "We will carry a unit of blood for 14 days, and then the South Texas Blood and Tissue Center will come and pick that blood up and give us a new unit. They will then take that (older) blood to a trauma center, where it will obviously get used," said Skinner.
It offers a variety of courses and job training opportunities at its facility located next door to the New Braunfels Municipal Airport. The city of Seguin is contributing $150,000 towards the project, and the Seguin Economic Development Corporation is donating $75,000. The city of New Braunfels and its economic development corporation will be sharing those overall costs for the project.

Second Wave Of Coronavirus In Winter Could Be More Deadly (Atlanta, GA) -- The director of the CDC is warning of a deadlier assault from the coronavirus. Dr. Robert Redfield told the Washington Post this winter could be more difficult than the current strain COVID-19 is having on the U.S. right now. He noted another wave could occur during flu season and have a major impact on America's health system. Redfield also told the paper federal and state officials need to be prepared and continue social distancing as stay-at-home orders are lifted.
Coronavirus Hotspots Recovering
(Washington, DC) -- The White House coronavirus task force says hotspots across the nation are recovering. Response Coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx said the Detroit metro area is doing well with a significant decline in new cases. New Orleans is nearly back to the baseline of where they started with new infections. Birx says the Chicago and Boston areas appear to be flattening, after a couple of weeks of unique concern. Philadelphia, St. Louis, Houston, Atlanta, Nashville, Baltimore and Indianapolis also appear to be flattening. Unfortunately, the DC-Metro is not showing a decline and Birx urges residents to continue social distancing.

Hydroxychloroquine Study Shows No Benefit, Trump Dodges Questions (Washington, DC) -- A drug backed by President Trump to possibly treat coronavirus is now tied to more deaths. That's what a new government-funded study shows. It reviewed hundreds of sick veterans across the nation and found hydroxychloroquine [[ HIGH-drox-eeklor-eh-quin ]] did not keep them alive or even off ventilators. Trump dodged questions about this during Tuesday's update. He only said "there have been some very good reports and perhaps this one's not a good report -- but we'll be looking at it."
Trump Updates On Cuomo Meeting (Washington, DC) -- President Trump says the Administration has forged a strong relationship with New York. Governor Andrew Cuomo met with the President Tuesday, after several days of exchanging barbs regarding the response to COVID-19. The Governor and Trump agreed the USNS Comfort hospital ship can sail back to its base in Virginia, in case another state should need its resources. Trump says five million masks have been sent to New York and in two days, the number of masks will double. The administration has also sent thousands of ventilators, so many, that New York will send some of the surplus to other hotspots including Massachusetts. Cuomo says it was a productive meeting discussing the partnership with state and federal officials on coronavirus testing.
