At the beginning people, including the "COVID scientists" did not know how the new virus would impact people and the public accepted the mask orders. Very quickly we learned that healthy people had very little to fear from the virus. The mask orders remained in effect far to long. No new orders.

"Natural immunity after COVID-19 infection may not protect you from reinfection, but getting your COVID-19 vaccine can. There have been a total of 125 reinfections recorded in Boone County. This suggests that natural immunity may not be enough protection, so getting the vaccine is still important"
Spike is now occurring locally and Delta Strain is more contagious.
