JASPER - The Dubois County Health Department confirms three more positive cases of novel coronavirus, bringing the countywide case count to 45. Twenty-four of the 45 cases have recovered.

As Dubois County businesses begin to open up a little more this week under Gov.  Eric Holcomb’s Phase 2, the Dubois County Health Department reminds all of critical factors during the next few weeks.  It is still highly recommended that all wear a cloth face covering when in public settings. Make sure you are washing your hands often and disinfect frequently touched surfaces. As always, remain social distancing. Stay home when feeling ill, except to seek medical care. Separate yourself from other people and pets in your home if you are sick. Call ahead before arriving to the medical clinic.  Take precautions to keep yourself and others safe. The key to advancing to each phase is everyone adhering to these recommendations.
