The Grand County coroner is disputing the number of COVID-19 deaths the state is reporting for the county. Brenda Bock told county commissioners on Tuesday that the state is reporting two additional COVID-19 deaths in Grand, which she believes should not be included. The coroner maintains that only one person in the county has died from COVID-19, while two more people have died with it, for a total of three COVID-related deaths in the county. However, the state is reporting five for Grand. In disputing the numbers, Bock explained that a couple who died of gunshot wounds late last month...

Public schools reported a decrease in the number of students for the first time in 30 years, many of them in early grades. Enrollment in Colorado public schools dropped by close to 30,000 students this school year — the first year-to-year decrease the state’s public school system has reported in more than 30 years. ... The overall drop in enrollment equates to a 3.3% decrease, with some of Colorado’s 178 school districts suffering dips of nearly 10% from enrollment during the 2019-20 school year. That could have serious consequences for the state’s public education system and districts budgets, which are...

Washington — The Supreme Court on Tuesday sided with a Colorado church challenging the state's capacity restrictions on houses of worship during the coronavirus pandemic, the latest order from the high court, now with a 6-3 conservative majority, in favor of churches and synagogues seeking to hold worship services during the ongoing crisis. In an order with three dissents, the high court tossed out an August decision from the federal district court in Colorado that kept the attendance limits in place and sent the dispute back to the lower courts for further consideration in light of its November order barring...

She is 34 years old and works waiting tables at one of the best burger joints in town. Luckily, she’s still employed, but only for takeout orders — cutting her tips in half. Her husband, 36, is a recently laid-off bartender at one of the white tablecloth restaurants. They have two little girls who attend Breckenridge Elementary but are now at home since schools are shut down for in-person learning. They rent a small, two-bedroom house in town, but with the layoff, they are several months behind on rent, putting their struggling landlord in a tight spot making his monthly...

Lauren Boebert @laurenboebert I told the president to keep fighting & use every bit of authority our Constitution grants. The Supreme Court does not decide the winner of the election. Congress does.

Woman dies after avoiding medical treatment due to fear of getting COVID-19 by: Rob Low Dec 10, 2020 LONGMONT, Colo. (KDVR) — Sieglinde Manning said her 72-year-old mother died not from COVID-19, but because she feared getting the coronavirus. The 54-year-old resident of Superior, Colorado said her mom hadn’t left the home the two shared in 9 months because she was terrified of contracting COVID. Gudrun Manning, who went by the nickname “GG” for “Grandma Goody,” developed a urinary tract infection in mid-October. Sieglinde said she recognized her mother’s symptoms and said in the past, similar infections had been successfully...

This means they can exceed capacity restrictions.. COLORADO SPRINGS — Worship leaders across the state are preparing to be able to do things a bit differently after a new public health order from the governor will allow places of worship to exceed mandated capacity limits. The order redefines worship services as essential, meaning they’re allowed to go over mandated capacity limits if they can’t perform their essential service without doing so. “I grew up in church and sensed that this is what I wanted to do,” said Vista Grande Baptist Church Pastor Chris Moore. “After college I felt that seminary...

Denver’s El Chapultepec Nightclub, A Favorite Haunt For Jazz Aficionados, Closes December 7, 2020 DENVER (CBS4) – El Chapultepec at 20th and Market Street in Denver is closing for good, in part because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The unpretentious bar in LoDo was where jazz greats often stopped to play for free, just for the love of music. Jerry Krantz ran “The Pec” as it’s most commonly known, for decades, even long before the revival brought on by the building of Coors Field. He died in 2012 and the bar had been going strong thanks to his daughter Angela Guerrero...

Group says protests will continue every Saturday until COVID-19 restrictions are loosened in Routt County.. STEAMBOAT SPRINGS — Members of the group Save Routt County, many of them restaurant workers, protested local restrictions put in place to combat the spread of COVIDS-19 that they say will lead to many local businesses demise. The protesters gathered at the Old Routt County Courthouse Saturday for what was billed as a non-partisan message that was indeed almost entirely absent partisan messaging. “It is not a partisan group here at all, the founding members of this thing, the initial group, there is Democrats, Republicans,...

Host Trevor Noah said Thursday night on Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show” that Democratic politicians were being hypocritical by ignoring their own coronavirus restrictions. Noah was highlighting a CNN report on the difference between the actions and mandates of San Francisco Mayor London Breed (D-CA), Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA), Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl (D), San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo (D-CA), Denver Mayor Michael Hancock (D-CO), and Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY).

Why can't the Broncos sign a quarterback? The logical thought one might have to the Broncos not having a quarterback is to simply sign a new one. But the NFL implemented COVID-19 rules for new players, which limits when they can actually play for a team. Per the NFL protocols, a new player cannot enter their team facility or start to practice until they test negative for five straight days and then test negative on the sixth day with a point of contact test. Even if the Broncos reacted right away and signed a quarterback after Driskel's positive test, there...

Representative-elect Lauren Boebert is trolling her home state of Colorado’s local shutdown orders by finding a way to bypass them this Thanksgiving.In an interview published Wednesday with Fox News, Boebert (R-Colo.) slammed local orders limiting personal gatherings to 10 people in an effort to stop the spread of coronavirus, arguing that it was absurd to curtail the number of people who could gather for Thanksgiving when the state permitted gatherings of up to 30 for funerals.

Governors across the country have placed restrictions on residents ahead of Thanksgiving in a purported effort to curb the spread of the Wuhan coronavirus. In Colorado, there’s a 10-person limit on gatherings, but GOP Rep.-elect Lauren Boebert has found a workaround. Rather than hosting a dinner, she’s having a “funeral” for the dead turkey. “In Colorado, Thanksgiving is limited to 10 people, but funerals are limited to 30,” she told Fox News. “So I’m going to have a peaceful funeral for a turkey and have about 30 people at my house.” Garfield County, Colorado, where Boebert resides, is under a...

A state representative in Colorado is reminding Americans that no lawmaker has the “constitutional authority” to impose restrictions on you in your own home on Thanksgiving. In a letter to his constituents in House District 39, Republican lawmaker Mark Baisley encouraged people to continue their Thanksgiving gatherings just as they would normally. This, despite current COVID restrictions and warnings being issued by several Democrat politicians. “It is important for Americans to realize that, in spite of their good intentions, neither a governor, a president-elect nor I as your state representative have the constitutional authority to restrict the number of family...

Denver Mayor Michael Hancock recently urged those in his fair city to avoid traveling to enjoy Thanksgiving with their loved ones. Because he truly cares about Denverites’ wellbeing. Or maybe because he just wanted to make sure that he wouldn’t have to sit near anybody on the plane ride to Mississippi, where he’s going to spend his Thanksgiving with his wife and daughter:
