Covid Positive Case Investigation 12-21-2021

The Cooper County Public Health Center (CCPHC) is changing how we follow-up on positive case contacts. As we experience an increase in cases, we needed to evaluate how to better utilize our available resources. We spend a large amount of time trying to contact positive cases. Not all individuals care to communicate with our staff. Therefore, we are making the following changes:

• If you are an adult who has been diagnosed with covid and have questions about quarantine or need an excuse for work, please call our office. A nurse will assist you. Phone number is
660-882-2626

• School age children and families will be a priority. If you do not call us, we will reach out by phone to the family and school

• Information on quarantine and covid care will be mailed to all adult households upon receiving a report of a positive covid diagnosis
