New Yellowstone Park Employee COVID Tests Come Back Negative

In partnership with the states of Montana and Wyoming and surrounding counties, Yellowstone National Park has conducted nearly 1,400 employee COVID surveillance tests since early June on front-line employees, with 346 tests having been conducted in the past three weeks. And all test results have been negative.
Two Yellowstone concession employees who tested positive for COVID-19, one outside the park and the other at a clinic in July have recovered. These cases are no longer active, and no other employees have tested positive in the previous four weeks out of a workforce of approximately 2,000. In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance, the park continues to proactively quarantine employees who have symptoms.
No visitors have tested positive in the last four weeks in any of Yellowstone’s medical clinics. There have been approximately 1.66 million visits to the park since it opened on May 18.
