State releases new and updated public health orders

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment announced amendments and extensions to public health orders and issued a new public health order on Oct. 31. The orders come as cases continue to rise in Colorado and as the state ensures that the vaccine and boosters are accessible to all Coloradans.

The order also includes hospital reporting requirements to provide the state with critical information to assess the statewide capacity to provide necessary medical care and services to Coloradans.
