Second COVID-19 death reported in Barry County

August 3, 2020
Posted by Sheila Harris

The Barry County Health Department reported a second Barry County COVID-19-associated death, Monday, August 3.
The 67-year-old man had underlying health issues.

Health Department and Emergency Management officials wish to offer their sincerest condolences to the family and friends on their loss.

Barry County Health Department Administrator Roger Brock and Emergency Management Director David
Compton remind Barry County citizens that COVID-19 remains a serious threat to everyone in our county.
Since COVID spreads through respiratory droplets expelled when a person talks, coughs, or sneezes, the best
prevention is to limit those droplets with a face covering. All residents are encouraged to wear face coverings
anytime you are within 6’ of a people outside of your home. Individual businesses should adopt masking
requirements for employees and customers. Service providers who cannot practice physical distancing (6’ or
more) are required to remain masked while providing any type of service.

Barry County Phase 2 Mitigation Rules began June 26 and remains in effect until August 31, 2020. Those rules
include required source control masking of service providers; recommended physical distancing, cloth face
coverings, and enhanced hygiene practices. For more information about COVID-19, visit cdc.gov/coronavirus,
call the Barry County Health Department at 417-847-2114 or the Missouri DHSS 24 hour hotline number at
877-435-8411.
