COVID-19 in Gasconade County

The Gasconade County Health Department reported to me only 11 new lab confirmed cases of COVID-19 in our county last week.  This kept our Community COVID level at Low (GREEN). Statewide hospitalizations and ICU stays due to COVID continue to decline to near the lowest levels since the start of the pandemic.  

Gasconade County CDC COVID Level is: Low (GREEN)

The Current CDC recommendations for this level of Community COVID are:
  • People with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID-19 should wear a mask.
  • Get tested if you have symptoms
  • Stay up to date with COVID-19 vaccines
