Mask-wearing and
vaccination are the two most important tools Coloradans can use to prevent the spread of COVID-19. As Colorado faces a surge of the
omicron variant, the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment recommends wearing a mask around others even if you are vaccinated against COVID-19.
Wearing a mask is especially important if you are not fully
up to date with your vaccinations.
While vaccination greatly reduces the chances of getting very sick, needing to be hospitalized, or dying from COVID-19, vaccinated people still can catch and spread the virus. Wearing a mask even after vaccination helps protect you and other people from COVID-19.
In some specific places, state law requires people to wear masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and keep others safe.
