• Missouri is launching a new one-stop shop for the state’s expanded COVID-19 dashboard set. This includes not only health data, but also economic and social impact data. The dashboard is designed to be easy for the general public to use. This data helps individuals, employers, nonprofits, and schools better understand the community’s COVID-19 and make decisions accordingly.

These new dashboards are updated every morning to replace the daily updates that took place at 2:00 pm. At this time, DHSS stops posting data to social media daily, but this and other information can be found at any time.With a new dashboard https://showmestrong.mo.gov/data/..

Today’s data reflects current case information in Missouri. Over the weekend, a state-wide team identified and fixed an issue with total case counts. This includes cases that have been counted multiple times and cases that have been marked as confirmed without the correct validation documentation.

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by the newly discovered coronavirus.

Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without the need for special treatment. Elderly people and people with underlying medical problems such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.

The best way to prevent and delay infection is to be well-known about the COVID-19 virus, the diseases it causes, and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by washing your hands and frequently using alcohol-based hand sanitizers. Do not touch your face. Wear a face mask if you are socially separated (6 feet) from others and cannot be socially separated.

It is also important to practice respiratory etiquette, as the COVID-19 virus spreads primarily through saliva droplets or is excreted through the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes (for example, on a bent elbow). By coughing).

At this time, there is no specific vaccine or treatment for COVID-19. However, there are many ongoing clinical trials evaluating potential treatments.
