"8 Missoula senior facilities hit by COVID-19; 2 county bars cited"
"Two businesses in Missoula County have been served with a Health Officer’s order for mandatory use of face coverings. The orders come after the Missoula City-County Health Department received multiple complaints from each business about customers and employees not wearing masks or not socially distancing.
Meanwhile, Missoula County is seeing a decrease in the proportion of active cases in the 20-29 age group but increases in the 70-79 and 80-and-over age group.
The Alcan Bar in Frenchtown and the Missoula Club, known locally as the Mo Club, were both issued the orders last week.
“What we’re seeing now is the proportion of active cases that are attributable to the 20-29 age group is down to 30% from 50% and on each side of that age group, from 10-19 and from 30-39, are at 15% and 16%.”
Leahy said there’s also a “large number” of cases in people over the age of 80.
“We are seeing spread in long-term care facilities, senior living and assisted living facilities and those types of places,” Leahy said."
[Does anyone else think it's odd that the new cases are moving from the 20-29 age group to the 70-79 and 80 and over age group, and 8 senior facilities in Missoula have covid, but county health department is going after the Mo Club?]
