TDEM Launches COVID Infusion Center in Waco

The Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM), in partnership with local officials, is launching a COVID-19 therapeutic infusion center in Waco. The infusion center has been provided with monoclonal antibodies to treat COVID outpatients who have a doctor’s referral.

This treatment is available at no cost to the patient. Local partners include McLennan County, Baylor Scott & White Medical Center–Hillcrest, Waco-McLennan County Public Health District, Texas State Technical College, the Waco-McLennan County Office of Emergency Management and the city of Waco.

“Thank you to our partners in Waco and McLennan County for working with the state of Texas to launch this infusion center,” said Gov. Greg Abbott. “This facility will expand access to this free and effective treatment for Central Texans who test positive for COVID-19.”

TDEM and the Texas Department of State Health Services have been expanding antibody infusion centers across the state in the past several months. The state began establishing the centers in November 2020.
