Park County and Colorado Begin a New Normal

As the pandemic response recedes into more of an endemic model, please review the state's plan going forward in, "COLORADO’S NEXT CHAPTER: OUR ROADMAP TO MOVING FORWARD" report. Park County Public Health and Emergency Management continue to monitor the disease and plan for potential surge capacity needs in the future. 

Looking for KN95 or Surgical-grade Masks?

KN95 Masks are now available for pick-up at locations throughout Park County. Each person is eligible to receive up to five free masks per month, due to limited availability and increased demand.

Did you misplace your COVID19 Vaccine Card? 

Your record is now available to all Coloradans using the myColorado app™ to privately and securely access their COVID-19 vaccination(s) record from the Colorado Immunization Information System (CIIS). COVID-19 vaccination(s) display in the same format as the paper CDC card the user received when they were vaccinated. The myColorado app allows users to download a copy to their device, refresh or delete the record. Please visit https://mycolorado.state.co.us/myvaccine-record for details.

School Guidance and Safety 

Because many students have yet to be vaccinated and students under 12 are not yet eligible, we must continue to remain vigilant, take important mitigation steps that can reduce transmission of COVID-19, and address outbreaks in a safe and thoughtful manner. Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) is providing this practical guide for schools, parents, and students on how to operationalize CDC guidance in our education settings.

Keep Yourself and Loved Ones Safe 

  • Getting the COVID-19 vaccine is an effective way to prevent you from getting really sick or dying from COVID-19. Being vaccinated means that you are protected from getting seriously ill and reduce the chance that you could spread COVID-19 to others who are more vulnerable.
  • Get tested if you experience symptoms or believe you've been exposed. You can easily order at-home rapid test kits from the federal program or the CO Rapid Test program. Swing by any local library or fire station for free rapid testing kits, too! 
  • Treatment options are available for COVID19 but early detection is necessary.
