“Hidalgo County staff have already contacted individuals that have been identified as a risk for exposure,” the Wednesday letter stated. “However, out of an abundance of caution, we are communicating with you to advise you to monitor your family’s health, follow the CDC guidelines for social distancing and contact your primary care physician if you develop symptoms.”
