June began with a 7-day rolling average of 50 cases, which is a 32% increase in COVID-19 cases since May 26. While Greene County remains at a low impact level, residents can continue to take precautions to keep cases low. This includes getting tested if you’ve been exposed or are showing symptoms and choosing vaccination.
Springfield-Greene County Health will host walk-in vaccine opportunities with community partners during the week of June 6 – 10.
Individuals who receive a primary (first or second) dose or first booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at a Health Department clinic will receive a $50 gift card while supplies last. Second booster doses are available for immunocompromised individuals 12 and up or anyone age 50 and over at least four months after a first booster dose. Gift card incentives are not available for a second booster dose.
Vaccination appointments are also available Monday-Friday at Westside Public Health Center (660 S. Scenic Ave.) from 1-4:30 p.m. To schedule, visit vaccine417.com or call the COVID-19 Call Center at 417-874-1211.
