Why Did Livingston Co Covid Cases Rise

If you are following the number of cases of COVID-19 on the Missouri COVID-19 Dashboard, you will notice Livingston County more than tripled the number of cases.  Ann Burchette from the Livingston County Health Center says this is the result of the Department of Corrections numbers being added into the county total.  Friday afternoon, the state added 199 cases of COVID 19.  The health center had advised the public this would happen.
The total cases on the State’s Dashboard are slightly behind the County’s numbers due to the volume of cases that need to be entered into their system.
