Within the state, however, there are 54 cases and testing continues daily.
In Branch, Hillsdale and St. Joseph counties, 20 individuals have been approved for testing using state guidelines. Of these 20 tests, 7 are negative for COVID-19, and the remaining 13 are still out for testing at the lab. There are currently no travelers being monitored within the three counties; meaning they have traveled to a Level 3 country.
The Coldwater-based agency and state authorities are making additional recommendations to prevent the spread of illness and slow any progression of a potential COVID-19 outbreak.
Branch-Hillsdale-St. Joseph Community Health Agency is relying on the communities it serves to continue practicing good prevention strategies, such as handwashing, and referring to official, reliable sources of information for updates and guidance.
