The Springfield-Greene County Health Department is notifying the public of potential community exposures from two people who tested positive for COVID-19. 

Prior to being diagnosed, they visited:

•    The Walmart Supercenter on E. Independence between 12:30 and 1:30 p.m. Thursday, June 11.  They were not wearing a mask. 

•    Thursday, June 11 they went to Harter House on E. Republic Rd. between 2:00 and 2:20 p.m. while unmasked.

•    Monday, June 15 they were at Bair’s Sports Grill on S. Kimbrough between noon and 1:00 p.m. They weren’t wearing a face covering.

•   And on Tuesday, June 16 they went to Mexican Villa, in the back dining room on W Sunshine St. between 11:00 and11:30 a.m. without a mask.

Anyone who was at these locations on these dates is at low risk for contracting COVID-19, but should monitor for symptoms.
