TDEM Launches New COVID-19 Infusion Center in Victoria

Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM), in partnership with local officials, is launching a new COVID-19 therapeutic infusion center in Victoria, TX. The infusion center is now accepting patients and has been provided with monoclonal antibodies to treat COVID outpatients who have a referral from a doctor. This treatment is available at no cost to the patient.

Local partners include Victoria County, the Victoria Office of Emergency Management, Victoria ISD and the Golden Crescent Regional Advisory Council.

“The state of Texas is expanding access to COVID-19 antibody therapeutics in communities where this treatment is needed most,” said Gov. Greg Abbott. “This new facility in Victoria will ensure Texans in the Golden Crescent region of our state who test positive for COVID-19 have access to this free and effective treatment.”

TDEM and the Texas Department of State Health Services have established and expanded antibody infusion centers in communities across the state in the past several months.
