Hospital workers prepare for another COVID surge [View all]

NEW BLOOMFIELD — “This last year has been the toughest of the tough."

The number of COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations in Missouri have been increasing over the past few weeks, and health officials say another surge is near to challenge an exhausted health care workforce.

“After two surges, it looks like we’re currently building towards another," said Dave Dillon, spokesman for the Missouri Hospital Association.

Missouri's seven-day testing positivity rate is 12.5 percent, and there are nearly 2,000 hospitalized COVID patients.
