COVID CORNER

*There have been updates to the CDC guidelines, City of St. Louis and St. Louis County health orders regarding COVID-19 restrictions. Currently, 1/4 of Missourians do not plan to receive the vaccine. In the City of St. Louis, only 28% of residents have completed the vaccine process; St. Louis County's rate is 36%. Since we do not know who is/is not vaccinated, First Baptist Church City of St. Louis will continue to practice safety measures of social distancing, masks and contact tracing to slow the spread of COVID and other communicable diseases to protect the health of OUR congregation and community.

Vaccines, single shot Johnson and Johnson and 2-shot Moderna and Pfizer, are available. Booster shots are available for those eligible. Vaccines for children ages 5 - 12 are now available.
