For example, cases in Camden County, near Lake of the Ozarks, went from 1 last week to 17 today.

I've counted 50 counties in Missouri just at a brief glance w/ 1 or 0 cases of it.
And you want to cite the Lake of the Ozarks, one of the highest travel areas in the region, among that lot?
I think Camden is probably approaching a spot where they need to consider taking steps to mitigate spread. I also anticipate they will do exactly that (we have already rec'd notice from their courthouse of anticipated changes; got that a few days ago, IIRC).
Can't throw the chute too early - especially in rural populations (who are closer to subsistence living and have a substantial '**** off' streak anyway). Because again, those are all laws that will be enforced/not enforced by local law enforcement.
Camden is now probably getting close to being able to take steps at a local level that law enforcement will actually adhere to and that actually matter because THEY made the call.
