‘We’re doing this to stay alive’

Not Dreamer — or the small contingent of Coloradans who bill themselves as COVID-cautious, or COVID-informed.
A decline in cases and the eroding government support for testing, tracking and masking has led to a worrisome complacency among the public, Dreamer said.
President Joe “Biden declared the public health emergency over in 2023,” they said, “but not the pandemic.”Test positivity — an indicator of how much the virus is circulating among a population — remains over 5%.
During the height of the pandemic, health officials considered a 5% positivity rate too high for lifting government restrictions.
The handmade pamphlets that accompanied them included information about COVID, masking and disability justice.
