Colorado Will Lift Mask Mandate On April 4th

From Axios.com:

Colorado will lift its statewide mask mandate April 4 and ease coronavirus protocols even as experts say it's not yet safe to do so.
Gov. Jared Polis' administration released a draft plan that takes a two-pronged approach to ease restrictions at the lower levels of the state's dial system and make it easier for counties to reach them.
It takes effect Wednesday, a year after Polis issued a statewide lockdown, and ultimately punts a mask requirement decision to local governments and businesses.
Under the proposed changes, face coverings would not be required in counties at Level Green except for ages 11-18 in school.
The state would make it easier to reach this lowest level by allowing a rate of 35 cases per 100,000 instead of the current 15 cases per 100,000.
In addition, the state is easing capacity limits at other levels to reopen bars and allow more indoor dining.
Most counties are at the higher levels. Denver is at Level Yellow.
