Two hairstylists at the same salon in Springfield, Missouri, potentially directly exposed around 147 people to the CCP virus after working with clients while displaying symptoms of COVID-19, officials said.
The Springfield-Greene Health Department announced Saturday that a second worker at Great Clips tested positive for the virus.
That stylist, who was not named, potentially exposed 56 people to the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus while working between May 16 to May 20, said the local health agency. She was “experiencing very mild symptoms but potentially infectious,” officials said.
“At this time, this is the only other positive result we have had from those tested as a result of the previous exposure,” the Springfield-Greene Health Department added in the news release.
A day earlier, authorities said that another stylist at the same Great Clips, located at 1864 Glenstone Ave., tested positive for COVID-19, the disease the CCP virus causes. That person was symptomatic and worked between May 12 and May 20, possibly exposing 91 people to the virus, the health department said.
The stylists and their clients all wore protective masks, authorities said. The agency now hopes that “because face coverings were worn throughout this exposure timeline, no additional cases will result.”
“We are hopeful that their strictly enforced policy of masking will prevent any future spread from this case. They also kept detailed records that have made contact tracing a speedy process,” Springfield-Greene County Health Department Director Clay Goddard stated on May 22.
Investigators are now going to trace the workers’ contacts and find customers who may have been exposed to COVID-19. Customers who went into the salon are being advised to watch for potential symptoms but health authorities added there’s no need to self-quarantine.

Sooner or later we’ll all be “exposed”.
{{{SHRUG}}}
Yawn. As long as they don’t live in skilled nursing facilities, they have nothing to worry about. But we can’t let facts undercut the fear porn.
Did the beauticians recover? That’s an important piece of information.
That said, it’s true that when we open up again, there will be outbreaks here and there.
We need not panic.
So if you went into Walmart on May 10 aroud 5pm, you might have been exposed, but the rest of the time no one else had the CCPVirus and I don’t need to worry. Got it.
Not a good time to take Granny for a trim.

Lots of potentially and possibly going on in this article.
Since all were wearing masks, what’s the big dang deal?
they are labeling places like this as ‘super spreader’ places now- that is the new buzzword they will use to shame everyone who goes to church ‘selfishly’ since they are ‘super spreading events’
The left want to remain in control and keep everyone shut down as long as possible- so they will exploit every minor incident like this salon issue to ‘prove’ their case that we ‘shouldn’t have opened up the country’- They, those in government who want to keep country shut down- all sit getting their paychecks, while the whole country suffers- so no skin off their noses-
What is wrong with these barbers and hairstylists!!!
There must be something in the stuff they’re using, the dye or the gel or something, like the chemical that used to make the hatters crazy years ago.
It’s maybe the least essential service I can think of. Certainly pedicures are more important, so you don’t get ingrown toenails.
Didn’t anybody ever hear of shampoo, conditioner, and other stuff you can buy at a drugstore? It’s not like people don’t have enough time.
The election is less than 6 months away, that’s what.
Yup.
Perhaps “fear porn”
will drive libtards
Conservative by
November.
It will be interesting to see how many catch it.
Thanks for posting with the hyperlinks. In the cases of symptomatic persons working while masked, this could provide valuable information on the efficacy of masks.
It is also likely some of these contacts will further demonstrate that infection is not spread simply by approximation, even when symptoms are present.
Knock, “hello you have been officially contact traced, you must make an appointment with a hero subsidized by insurance. You are required to have BodyMortgage Care.”
GOOD
the more who get exposed the better
from a weak ass virus that barely kills anyone under 70 who isn’t already sick or infirm
we won’t get foold twice
take the drug cocktail and they’ll be fine...with a few exceptions that will make msm and FR headlines
there’s some coronavirus hardliners here :)
“Investigators are now going to trace the workers’ contacts and find customers who may have been exposed to COVID-19. Customers who went into the salon are being advised to watch for potential symptoms but health authorities added there’s no need to self-quarantine.”
What is the point of the contact tracing if they had been exposed but are saying no need to self quarantine?
This whole virus episode is fishy. Rules change by the minute.

NO NEED TO SELF QUARANTINE - Why not if the virus is so deadly?
Yes, there is something definitely weird about this.
