Clinton County Reports 232 Thursday – Sunday COVID-19 Lab-positives Thursday

Since our 12/31 update, 232 additional lab-confirmed COVID-19 positive cases have been reported.
With the significant uptick in cases we are seeing, we ask that residents limit their time in the community as much as possible. Stick to essential trips or visits like going to work or school, medical appointments, or shopping for necessities. Shopping trips should be limited to single-person trips to avoid unnecessary crowding in stores. Continue to practice prevention methods such as wearing a mask that goes over your nose AND mouth; keeping at least 6ft between yourself and others; avoiding crowds and gatherings; washing your hands often or using a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol; staying home when you are sick and; reducing contact with those who do not live in your household.
