A person who spent Memorial Day weekend at bars and pool parties at the Lake of the Ozarks tested positive for COVID-19, the Camden County, Missouri, Health Department announced on Friday.
The person, who is a Boone County, Missouri, resident, arrived in the area on Saturday and became sick Sunday, the department said in a Facebook post. It is likely they were incubating the illness and could have been infectious while they were at the Ozarks.
The person was one of hundreds of people who flocked to the regional tourist destination and attended parties that drew outrage and fear nationwide when they were caught on video showing attendees flouting social-distancing guidelines.
After the video surfaced, health officials in Kansas, St. Louis and Kansas City urged travelers returning from the region to self-quarantine for 14 days.
