COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
Coronavirus health orders covering Columbia and Boone County are set to expire at noon Wednesday, ending a 14-month period with orders in place.
Nickie Davis, executive director of Columbia s Downtown Community Improvement District, said in an email that while many businesses are eager for the health order to end, others are worried it may lead to rising coronavirus cases and another lockdown.
Davis said many businesses will still ask their customers to wear a mask and her organization is advising residents to check in with a business before going there.
