Springfield-Greene County Health Department notes potential COVID-19 exposure at Target

(From the Springfield-Greene County Health Department)

The Springfield-Greene County Health Department is notifying the public of a potential community exposure from one COVID-19 positive individual.

Prior to being diagnosed, our case went to the following location:

Saturday, June 27: Visited Target at 1825 E Primrose from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. (infectious but not symptomatic, not masked)








Anyone who was at this location on this date is at low risk for contracting COVID-19, but should monitor for symptoms. There is no need to self-quarantine or isolate unless symptoms develop.

It is our responsibility to take steps to suppress COVID-19 in our community and interact with our environment carefully. If someone is sick or thinks they may be sick, they need to stay home. We all need to practice physical distancing, proper hand hygiene and wear a face covering whenever possible. For information on how to properly wear a face covering and when to wear one, click here.

A timeline of all known potential community exposures in the last 14 days is available here.

Eight new positive COVID-19 cases were reported by the Health Department today, bringing the total number of laboratory confirmed cases to 296.
