Twelve COVID-19 cases were reported today — six in the 28645, two in 28630, three in 28638, and one in 28601.
Testing is recommended for anyone who thinks they have been exposed to COVID-19, whether or not they have symptoms.
One way to know about possible exposure to a person who has COVID-19 is by receiving a call from a contact tracer with the Caldwell County Health Department. It is important to answer the call. The contact tracer will share important information and ways to stay safe.
People experiencing COVID-like symptoms can visit “Check My Symptoms” at www.ncdhhs.gov/symptoms and enter their symptoms to determine if COVID-19 testing is needed. To find testing sites in Caldwell County, visit www.caldwellcountync.org/coronavirus-covid-19/testing.
