We adopted a plan in July, based on expert health advice, with specific community case thresholds determining certain formats of attendance. We now have abandoned that plan. Our local count exceeds the threshold for a hybrid return for highschool by 1.5x. We lack staffing to cover certain illness

Good for state morale. Less good for state revenue. Less good for residents who wish to attend games as ticket prices soar. But it keeps MO in national eye which is good for state economy.
