The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only.

There is no stopping in the red zone

Were at min of 21% immune combing 14% full vaccinated and 7% recovered for 16+ years old. There are also those that didn’t know had Covid plus those that just don’t catch it. If count having 1st does of vaccine, are at min 35%.

Numbers are going up quickly which is great news we all need.

I guess I don’t understand the reasoning behind the color codes other than it’s another screwball idea by screwball authority types. Seems to me be green would be the good tier color but then I haven’t spent much time looking at silly “tier” designations for an imaginary pandemic. 😉

What are state guidelines regarding masking? In the Red tier is it mandatory for everyone meeting indoors to wearing masks? Thanks
