(From the Springfield-Greene County Health Department)The Springfield-Greene County Health Department is saddened to announce the death of a Greene County resident from COVID-19.
Our community lost a man in his 70s with underlying health conditions. He was not associated with long-term care.
The Health Department extends our condolences to loved ones at this difficult time.
“This death and too many others are a sad reminder that COVID-19 is taking from us loved ones who had years ahead of them. Having an underlying health condition should not be interpreted as an individual being sick, feeble or infirm. Many of us live robust lives every day with the underlying health conditions that can make us more at risk to severe complications from this disease. We owe it to each other to faithfully practice watching our distance, wearing our masks and washing our hands,” said Director of Health Clay Goddard.
Fourteen COVID-19 deaths have been reported by the Health Department in September. A total of 44 Greene County residents have died from COVID-19.
