Three Missourians Quarantined Over Possible Coronavirus Exposure

The Clay County Health Department in western Missouri is monitoring three people, described as having a medium risk of exposure to the coronavirus.

The health department says they’re under home quarantine for 14 days. What that monitoring process involves is the checking of temperature twice a day, and monitoring for signs of illness, which in this case could be fever, trouble breathing or respiratory distress.

The Clay County Health Director says the three people could have been potentially exposed because of their recent travels.
