COVID Numbers Discussed at Chamber Meeting

(Desloge, MO) The COVID positivity rate in St. Francois County is high and Desloge Chamber of Commerce members were given more information on the numbers at Tuesday's monthly chamber business luncheon. The featured speaker for the meeting, The Executive Director of the St. Francois County Health Center, Linda Ragsdale, told the crowd the rate is down a little but the figures are probably higher because people aren't reporting the results of home tests as they should.

An open house was also held Tuesday for the chamber's new offices on Lincoln Street. The meeting's Business Spotlight featured NHC Desloge Health Care and a presentation from NHC Administrator, Blair Riddle.
