WESLACO – New numbers on vaping cases in the South Texas region have more than doubled.

In a week’s time, the state went from 54 cases to 75, compared to our region which went from six to 16 cases.

Less than a month ago, Hidalgo County had only one case.

Some retailers, such as Walmart and H-E-B, are making efforts to discontinue the sales of all vaping products.
