Over the course of the pandemic, our collective response has led to much of our success in reducing transmission and minimizing impacts to the health of our community. With case counts rising Gunnison County strongly recommends the tactics we have come to know well: 

• Get vaccinated if you are eligible (ages 5 years and older), be sure to complete the entire vaccination series. 
  • Get a booster if you are eligible! Boosters limit the potential for several illness from COVID-19.
• Wear a mask in all indoor settings, especially where distancing is not possible. This is particularly important in large indoor gatherings.
• Limit Exposures, try to avoid large, indoor gatherings with folks you don’t know or where vaccination status is unknown.
• Assure best ventilation for all interactions including, outdoor spaces, outdoor air circulation and air filtration as needed.
• Monitor for COVID-19 symptoms, isolate if you experience symptoms.   Stay home if you are sick. 
• Get tested if you have any COVID-19 symptoms. Many vaccinated individuals experience very mild symptoms that could be overlooked.
• Wash your hands frequently and avoid contact with your face, especially eyes and mouth.
