The Warren County Health Department is confirming 1 additional COVID-19 related death. The individual was a male between the ages of 60-80. Our deepest sympathy goes out to family and friends. We continue to urge our community to do what you can to slow the spread of the virus and to get vaccinated.
The Warren County Health Department is announcing 3 additional confirmed case of coronavirus disease
(COVID-19), bringing the total cases to 3913. 3830 cases have had their symptoms resolve. Due to federal

County level COVID-19 metrics for Week 11 from March 13 – March 19, 2022 for Warren County indicate we have low community transmission. IDPH uses numerous indicators when determining warning signs of
increased risk in the county. A county is considered at a warning level when at least two of the following metrics trigger a warning.

Now that home tests are available (we do not receive those results) and soon test sites will not have to report negative rapid antigen tests, means that % positivity really will be irrelevant. We will continue to monitor new cases for potential outbreaks and work with long-term care, daycare and schools. IDPH anticipates that we will continue to see surges and there will most likely be a recommendation for an additional booster but there are still a lot of unknowns as we continue to respond to COVID. If we see potential surges coming or get new guidance from IDPH/CDC we will continue to share that information. We will continue to offer testing and COVID vaccinations as well. COVID-19 vaccinations will be available Monday-Thursday from 1-4 by appointment. Please call to schedule your appointment at 309-734-0823.
