Polis said that that some Colorado residents have already gotten third doses of the vaccine despite the lack of federal guidance or approval by using fake namesto get around health providers who won't administer third shots to fully inoculated patients.

 

“Other than anecdotally, we don’t have any information about that," Polis said “But we certainly are aware that many Coloradans — particularly most vulnerable Coloradans — are perhaps a little bit ahead of the (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) and want to get that booster shot immediately.”

 

Because of the contagious nature of the delta variant which has led to increased coronavirus cases across many U.S. states, McDonald said the city's original goal of 70% of fully vaccinated residents “is not gonna get us where we need to be.”

 

The decision came as Denver's average daily infection rates have increased from 15 to almost 70, average daily positivity rates have risen from 1.0% to above 3% and amid more COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19, officials said in a statement.

 

Denver willmandate all city employees and private sector workers in high-risk settingsto be vaccinated against COVID-19 by Sept. 30, Mayor Michael Hancock announced Monday.

 

Denver's public health measure applies to more than 10,000 municipal employees like police officers, firefighters, and sheriff’s deputies, the city said in a statement.
