In Colorado — if you're fully vaccinated — some good news: You won't need to worry about a face covering in certain situations.

If you're not vaccinated — masks will be hanging around a bit longer. The state has extended its mask mandate for another 30 days. 

The governor says groups of 10 or more people inside do not need to wear masks if at least 80 percent of them are fully vaccinated.

The state reported 960 new cases yesterday and its 7-day positivity rate is just above six percent. It's goal is to be under five percent.
