The Graves County Health Department has announced the third case of COVID-19 in the county.

A Graves County resident in his thirties has tested positive for the virus. Officials say the man is in isolation at his home and a contact investigation is being performed.

"We have appreciated the cooperation of all individuals involved during our contact investigations," said Kathy Gifford, Nurse Supervisor for the local health department.


The health department provided the following tips:

• STAY CALM: You are not alone in this. Your community is here to support you. Talk to your friends and family and let them know if you are having concerns.

• STAY APART: Keep at least 6 feet away from others including while shopping for life-sustaining essentials. Avoid the lines by taking advantage of pick-up or delivery services for groceries and other goods.

• STAY PUT: Keep non-essential trips to a minimum and cancel your travel plans. Unless it is essential you go out, stay home.

If you are experiencing a fever, cough, shortness of breath or other flu like symptoms, officials ask that you stay home and call your healthcare provider before going to a healthcare facility.
