LUBBOCK, Texas — The City of Lubbock released an updated map of community acquired COVID-19 cases by zip code on Monday.
A coronavirus case is classified as “community acquired” if there is no other known exposure to the illness such as travel or exposure to a known case.
As of Monday, 73 positive cases in Lubbock were community acquired, according to the City of Lubbock. 68 were included on the map.
The city’s map does not show where the person was exposed to the virus, but rather where they live.
