While last week’s preliminary injunction was limited to the Parker Montessori daycare facility in Parker and Curl Up N Dye hair salon in Castle Pines, both of which sued the county at the end of last year over the mask exemption order, their attorney Igor Raykin said the court sent a larger message with its ruling.
Doug Benevento, president of the Douglas County Board of Health, said in a statement Monday that the agency’s public health order “does not prohibit local businesses – nor anyone else – from mandating masks.” “If I were to catch COVID, it could kill me,” she said. “I’m the one who has put blood, sweat and tears into this and it’s my responsibility that no one gets sick coming out of my store.”90% of Coloradans now believed to have immunity

Home to the city hall, post office and a mosque converted from the colonial-era Italian cathedral, Algeria Square plays a big role in the capital's civic life. 'My country is being destroyed daily, and we do not see elections, democracy, or a correct political process capable of ending this catastrophe that has become a nightmare,' said Jamal Obaid, a state employee in a street by Algeria Square.
