Today, we learned that the presumptive-positive COVID-19 (coronavirus) patient from St. Louis County traveled via Amtrak through the Gateway Transportation Center in the City of St. Louis. We are glad to learn that the patient’s symptoms did not warrant hospitalization and she is recovering in quarantine at home with her family.
The Gateway Transportation Center is following guidelines to assure the cleanliness of our facility.
We encourage everyone—travelers and citizens alike—to be mindful and follow guidelines for prevention of COVID-19 spread, such as those posted by the City of St. Louis Department of Health: [https://www.stlouis-mo.gov/government/departments/health/communicable-disease/covid-19/index.cfm]
