Boulder County has extended its mask order indefinitely, as the county continues to combat the spread of the coronavirus.
The county also reported five more positive cases or cases that are considered probably in new data released Monday.
The extended mask order requires face coverings for every person older than 12 years old whenever in public anywhere in Boulder County that social distancing of six feet cannot be maintained.
The order had been set to expire on Tuesday, but according to a release from Boulder County Public Health, the mask order will now remain in place indefinitely.
We know its unpleasant to wear a face covering. None of us are excited to wear them. But its a small inconvenience that can save lives and our economy, Jeff Zayach, Boulder County Public Health executive director, said in a statement. Wearing face coverings in public is not a political statement; its an important tool in our toolbox to help slow the spread of this disease. If we can slow the spread, well be able to enter the Protect Your Neighbor phase which will allow us to further reopen our economy.
But the release also states the county does not have enough resources to police individual people violating the order. Instead, the release asks for the publics help in normalizing wearing masks and encouraging others to do so.
We know that some people are choosing not to wear face coverings despite being required by law, Zayach said in a statement. This is disappointing and leaves it up to the rest of us to be responsible for ourselves, our loved ones, those who could die from the disease, and the survival of our economy. Lets show the state and country that the people of Boulder County care about their community.

Wow. Five cases and they go nuts. Here in WA we had 1300 deaths from the virus out of a population of 7.6 million and Inslee shuts down the entire state costing consumers billions and lost jobs and businesses closing, going bankrupt. Thirteen hundred people.
This is why the U.S. will have 2 million deaths by this fall.
I doubt that
The definition of boulder is 34 square miles surrounded by reality. There is a large Chinese and Mexican population in the area. Boulder has been a drug capital of the country for years. The secretary of state even wrote warning boulder of voting violations. Law and logic means nothing in boulder.
‘A godless, stupid, all-white city where the temple is a bicycle and running shoes.’
what does a god, a bicycle, or running shoes have to do with wearing face masks...?
You are so compliant..........
‘125,000/330 million = ?’
.0379 percent...
‘People, just wear the damn masks.’
or what, you’re gonna call the cops on us and demand that we be fined $5,000 plus a year in prison...? by the way, did you ever answer that guy who kept asking you where you lived where this policy is in effect...?
The few times that I have been around Boulder, that is what I thought.
Negative.
‘This is why the U.S. will have 2 million deaths by this fall.’
what’s your deal, anyway...?are you a governor of a blue state lurking on the enemy website...?
It was always about the election.
Some people believe in freedom...others do not by insisting other wear masks.

I’m sorry if you are one who believes that we’re supposed to wear face masks and to be okay with that...now I understand why you didn’t understand making fun of that. Since Boulder spell militant in other areas of exercise education and is run by basically fascist, I understand why they are making everybody wear face masks. Do you understand now?
Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) just banned in-restaurant beer drinking. I had booked a “you drink, we drive” brewery bus tour. Now the company has to issue refunds (or change to the fall). For me it’s the former and I gotta wait a year or so to do this.
Primanti Bros, great sandwiches, go great with beer...but not in Allegheny County, you don’t. At least it will work in other counties like Beaver (Moon Twp for example)

Someone whose blinders have come off as to how stupid Americans are.
‘Do you understand now?’
first off, no one is more opposed to wearing masks than I am; try reading my posts before labeling me...
‘Since Boulder spell militant in other areas of exercise education and is run by basically fascist...’
is that supposed to be a grammatical phrase...?
‘I understand why they are making everybody wear face masks’
so are you saying the Boulder officials make the populace observe stringent cardio health regimens in addition to the masks...?
Travis, is that you?
‘Someone whose blinders have come off as to how stupid Americans are.’
yeah, you’re right; letting a bunch of lunatic governors shut down the economies of their states and bringing them to the brink of insolvency is pretty damned stupid...
Just go away...
