COVID-19 CLUSTER REPORTED IN PRESTON COUNTY

A COVID-19 outbreak in Preston County has been traced to travelers to and from Myrtle Beach. Eight people have tested positive, and all eight recently returned from a trip to Myrtle Beach. Vacation trips to crowded areas such as beaches are risky, due to the amount of people and the difficulty to social distance. Health officials urge residents who have traveled back from Myrtle Beach, or any other crowded vacation destination in the last two weeks to self-quarantine for 14 days.
