Testing for COVID-19 continues for a second day Friday, June 5, at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds. The Missouri National Guard is helping with the testing. It’s one of several community sampling events taking place in six counties in the state.

According to the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, the testing will allow public health officials to learn more about the prevalence of COVID-19 transmission. The goal is to test close to 10,000 people over a 10-day period, which started May 26.
