One hundred-forty clients at a hair salon in Missouri may have been exposed to COVID-19 after a second hairstylist at the location tested positive for the coronavirus.
On Friday, the city of Springfield said 91 people — 84 clients and seven employees — had been exposed after a stylist worked for eight days while showing symptoms.
Now, 56 more clients have been “potentially directly exposed,” the city said Saturday, saying the second stylist at the Great Clips salon tested positive and worked for five days while “experiencing very mild symptoms.”
“At this time, this is the only other positive result we have had from those tested as a result of the previous exposure,” the city said.
