UT Medical Center states that there have been posts circulating on social media with incorrect information. Please understand: UT Medical Center is not on lockdown.
However, “For the safety of our patients and team members, local hospitals are no longer allowing visitors, with exceptions in place for certain situations. In addition, we have set up a tent outside of the Emergency Department to assess patients with respiratory symptoms, which keeps these individuals separate from others seeking care in the ED.
