Colorado's COVID-19 incident commander reiterated that about 80% of those hospitalized with COVID-19 are not vaccinated.
"This continues to be the pandemic and beyond vaccinated. The burden of the unvaccinated on our health care system is truly extraordinary. As we approach what is almost the two-year mark of the beginning of this pandemic," said Scott Bookman.
