As local COVID cases near 1,000, Douglas County health leaders to again consider mask mandate

Douglas County is on the verge of again having 1,000 active COVID cases, which will lead local health officials to again consider a countywide mask mandate. “The operative word there, though, is ‘consider,’” Lawrence-Douglas County Public Health Director Dan Partridge told the Journal-World. “We haven’t yet had the meeting.” Partridge said it is not a foregone conclusion that public health officials will recommend that the Douglas County Commission approve a mask mandate once cases hit the 1,000 mark.
