Boulder County rises to “medium” COVID-19 level
DENVER (AP) — Boulder County is urging residents to take additional safety measures because of a rise in the number of COVID-19 cases. The county’s public health department said Friday that the number of new cases per 100,000 people exceeded 200 in the last week, shifting the county from a “low” community COVID-19 level to “medium”, under federal guidelines. The city of Boulder said it would return to holding virtual city council meetings because of the increase in cases, noting that council members and staff contracted COVID-19 after attending an in-person meeting on May 3.
