The Macon County Health Department reminds, COVID 19 is still around, and here to stay. Since COVID-19 is still listed as a reportable disease in Missouri state statute, Macon County Health Department still tracks laboratory confirmed cases and calls individuals to ensure that they are all right or if they need help or referrals. At this time our case count in Macon County is low but it is increasing and we have been receiving a number of calls from
residents testing positive with home tests which indicates that COVID-19 is present in our communities. Macon County Health Department, through a grant from the Department of Health and Senior Services, provides COVID-19,
flu, and RSV testing for free.
