Colorado’s strict, statewide COVID-19 Public Health orders expired at 12:01 a.m. last night. The COVID-19 Dial has evolved into Public Health Order 20-38: Limited COVID-19 Restrictions, which allows counties to implement regulations at the local level while still maintaining some limited requirements across the state.

It appears that herding cats might be easier than defining what that “something else” is; as counties take a variety of approaches from no restrictions at all (Weld and Douglas counties for instance) to local versions of modified restrictions.
