SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) – The Sheboygan County Division of Public Health is advising those who attended funerals coordinated by Suchon Funeral Homes on March 5th or March 7th to monitor themselves for symptoms of COVID-19 illness until March 21st.
Starrlene Grossman, Health Officer for the Sheboygan County Division of Public Health, said in a release on Wednesday that at least one attendee to the services has tested positive for the COVID-19 virus. She stressed that the risk of exposure was low, but a proactive response is being taken by notifying the community in an attempt to control the spread of the virus as best as can be.
Grossman added that at this time testing for COVID-19 is limited and routine testing won’t be done on those who have no symptoms. If symptoms do occur you’re encouraged to contact the Division of Pubic Health to see if you qualify for testing.
