ST. LOUIS It s warming up in the St. Louis area, and the COVID-19 vaccine rollout has continued in the St. Louis area, which leads to a question on many people s minds: Do we still need to wear masks outside?

The state of Missouri has been told it will not receive another shipment of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine until the last week of March two weeks after the next tier of eligible residents will be opened.
The unexpected news, which was announced on a weekly call with vaccine providers Tuesday, means the initial shipment of 50,000 doses of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine received this week will be the only shipment Missouri receives until the week of March 29.
The state still anticipates at least about 120,000 doses of Moderna and Pfizer’s vaccine each week.
“What we thought at the beginning of this week is a little bit different now,” Ted Delicath, a principal with the McChrystal Group, a Virginia-based consulting firm hired to advise the state’s response to the pandemic, told vaccinators Tuesday.

ST. LOUIS The numbers of reported COVID-19 cases are going down in many cities across the United States. In fact, positive case counts are down in St. Louis too. What we ve seen is a decrease in the number of COVID cases and subsequently a decrease in the number of patients coming into the hospital, Chief Medical Officer of Mercy Hospital South and Infectious Disease Specialist, Dr. Aamina Akhtar tells 5 On Your Side.
The question now, is why?
Did the cold snap keep people inside and away from others? Are more people wearing masks? Are vaccinations making a dent in case numbers?
