The Springfield-Greene County Health Department is notifying the public of potential community exposures from two COVID-19 positive individuals. One individual resides in Greene County and one resides in another jurisdiction.
Prior to being diagnosed, the individuals went to the following locations:
Wednesday, June 17: Visited Walmart Supercenter at 3520 W Sunshine from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. (infectious and symptomatic, not masked)
Saturday, June 27: Visited Wonders of Wildlife (aquarium side only) at 500 W Sunshine from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. (infectious but not symptomatic, not masked)
Anyone who was at these locations on these dates 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.
