San Juan County Public Health UPDATE
As of September 14, 2021, the two week case incidence rate of COVID-19 in San Juan County has dropped to fewer than 8 cases. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) classifies the level of community transmission in San Juan County, Colorado as Low. The best protection against COVID-19 is to continue to apply community mitigation strategies to reduce exposure.
These strategies include vaccination, wearing a face covering, physical distancing, holding social gatherings and conducting business outdoors instead of indoors, maximizing indoor ventilation, symptom screening, and hand hygiene.
Safe and highly effective vaccines against COVID-19 are now widely available in San Juan County for those 12 years of age and older. SJCPH urges eligible unvaccinated individuals to get vaccinated as soon as possible and urges partially vaccinated people to complete their vaccination series to maximize their level of protection.
For the purposes of this advisory, “Public Indoor Space” means any enclosed indoor area that is publicly or privately owned, managed, or operated to which individuals have access by right or by invitation, expressed or implied, and that is accessible to the public, serves as a place of employment, or is an entity providing services. Public Indoor Space does not mean a person’s residence, including a room in a motel or hotel or a residential room for students at an educational facility
