• “At this point, there is community based spread throughout Iowa and surrounding states, and Cass County is no exception to that. While we understand there is a great deal of curiosity and anxiety about the source of COVID-19 cases, the bottom line is that regardless of where the cases originated, we all have to understand that the virus is here in our county. We encourage everyone to practice social distancing, frequent hand washing or sanitizing, wearing masks as a considerate gesture to those around you, and staying home as much as possible.”
