Colorado retired its statewide COVID-19 dial Friday, giving local counties and municipalities more local control over pandemic regulations and capacity restrictions.
The state will maintain some limited requirements, but restrictions can now be determined at the local level. However, with Pueblo’s COVID-19 cases continuing to rise, the Pueblo Department of Public Health and Environment has opted to remain in Level Yellow under the state s dial framework.
PDPHE Director Randy Evetts explained the decision to remain in yellow to Pueblo County commissioners on Thursday.
“The current state of our COVID infection in the county is that we are seeing a pretty sharp increase in numbers. We’ve had almost 500 cases in the last seven days,” Evetts said.
