I'm grateful for the opportunity to be able to serve. Today has been a great, great role model. It's been a great teacher over the years. It's got some mighty large shoes that are left to fill. As of yesterday afternoon, the city reported 160 active cases of COVID-19 with 47 patients hospitalized at Joplin area hospitals, nine of those Joplin residents. Yesterday, the city also reported its 25th COVID-19 related fatality, a 69-year-old man who health officials say that the coronavirus was a significant factor in his death. For KRPS, I'm Fred Fletcher-Fierro in Web City.
