SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (KY3) –
The Centers for Disease Control published a report highlighting the success of masks after two Springfield stylists contracted COVID-19.
CoxHealth Infectious Disease Doctor Robin Trotman and the Springfield-Greene County Health Department compiled the report.
The case involves two stylists at a Springfield Great Clips. The Greene County Health Department (Missouri) conducted contact tracing for all 139 exposed clients back to the dates that stylists A and B first developed symptoms. The 139 clients were monitored after their last exposure at the salon. It turned out none suffered any symptoms for COVID-19.
The CDC points to this study for wearing face coverings.
