News reports that Texas is in an upward spiral are quite accurate. On the last weekly worksheet sent, weekly new Texas cases jumped to 19,204 from 12,251 the prior week (which was also a record week); for the first 5 days in this cycle, new cases are at 22,354 and could easily exceed 30,000 this week. Whatever contact tracing has been done is likely being overwhelmed by this spike.
