It had to happen sometime, but my story began in earnest today (Saturday) when, after coming down with what I thought was just a cold on Friday, turned out to be COVID 19 today.
At the monthly Missoula County Board of Health meeting on Thursday, the 7 member board voted unanimously to pass the mandatory masking order for all businesses licensed by the city and for all establishments inspected by the City County Health Department.
At a press conference conducted by Mayor John Engen and a plethora of city and county officials on Friday, the City County Health Department imposed more stringent guidelines on what businesses may open as per Governor Bullock’s order of April 22.
