Masks become mandatory in Marshall Co
11/18/2020

(KMZA)--Marshall County becomes the latest area county to implement a countywide mask mandate due to a surge in COVID-19 cases.

On the advice of local county health officials, the Marshall County Commission voted unanimously Monday to put the state's mask mandate into effect immediately.

The county had opted out of the Governor Kelly's mask mandate in July when it was not seeing any cases.

On Monday, the Marshall County Health Department reported the county's second COVID-19 related death and 133 active cases.

The Marysville City Council last Friday approved a citywide mask mandate. Those violating the ordinance could face possible fines.
