The Ellis County Health Department on Thursday reported that three people in attendance at a recent youth sports tournament in Hays have tested positive for COVD-19.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment said the three attended three basketball tournaments in Hays and Wichita on June 20 and 21.
The county health department noted in a news release the three positive cases are not residents of Ellis County, but noted those in attendance at the events might have been exposed to COVID-19.
The tournaments were the MAYB boys tournament June 20 and 21 in Hays and the MAYB girls tournament on June 21, both at the Hays Recreation Commission.
The third tournament was an MAYB boys competition June 20 and 21 at the Wichita Sports Forum.
The county health department urged anyone attending these events monitor their symptoms until 14 days after exposure — July 4 or 5.
Those determined to have close contact with the positive cases will be notified by KDHE.
