Changes to City services

On May 19 Columbia/Boone County Public Health and Human Services launched a new COVID-19 information hub for the City of Columbia and Boone County. The hub, updated daily, serves as a resource for the entire community with detailed information on the latest COVID-19 case statistics, testing, hospital status and more.

Additionally, PHHS publishes a daily "End of Day Summary" which can be viewed at https://www.como.gov/coronavirus/official-documents/.


Other important announcements, health orders or changes to City services will be shared with our community with individual press releases and social media to ensure the community is provided the most up-to-date information.
