++ Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) updated
the Safer at Home public health order tonight. The order provides greater
flexibility to gyms located in counties in Safer at Home level 3.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14_GaVScXNeYPrT6ZmTw1MuU9_A1egOAd/view
Gyms will be allowed to operate with the following capacity limits per room
indoors or per designated activity area outdoors:
Safer at Home 1 → 25% capacity, 75 people, whichever is fewer.
Safer at Home 2 → 25% capacity, 50 people, whichever is fewer.
UPDATED: Safer at Home 3 → 25% capacity, 25 people, whichever is fewer.
++ the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE)
announced several Colorado counties are moving to stricter levels on the state’s
COVID19 dial. After two weeks of growing cases and mounting pressure on the
health care system, the following counties, in consultation with CDPHE, are
moving to more restrictive levels: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19

Public Health: Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment is still at a Level 1 status in response to COVID19;
however, the lifeline is changing from yellow to green
(stabilization). The lifeline has not fully returned to its “preincident
normal”, as the state continues to meet the needs of the public
and CDPHE is still performing critical services such as
monitoring, testing, resourcing and responding functions in
response to COVID19.
++ As of today there are 109,910 cases, 9089 hospitalized, 64
counties, 1,236,323 people tested, 2,288 deaths among cases,
2,105 deaths due to COVID19
++ The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) finalized its guidance for ski areas and resorts today.
The guidance goes into effect immediately. After releasing a draft
of the guidance on Oct. 14, the state reviewed feedback from
community members and organizations from across the state,
and incorporated feedback into the finalized guidance.

Medical Care: (NEW Info) Alternate Care Sites (ACS) On
October 5 the State of Colorado began deconstruction of two
alternative care sites. The Ranch Complex in Loveland and the
Western Memory Care Center in Grand Junction will complete
deconstruction around midNovember.
https://covid19.colorado.gov/pressrelease/stateofcolorado- beginsdeconstructionoftwoalternativecaresites
Patient Movement: UCC dispatch center is in "Cold status"
operational to support COVID19 patient movement.
Fatality Management: The COVID19 Fatality Management Plan
has been approved and signed. Will activate based on situational
needs.
Medical Supply Chain: Continuing to monitor and work within the
supply chain (Nationally), alternative means are available. The
Counties are encouraged to reach out to their stakeholders to
purchase PPE and cleaning supplies in preparation of the second
round of infections and increased cases.
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) provided an update on counties that have moved to
stricter levels of the COVID19 dial and counties that are
expected to move in the coming days.
These moves are indicative of rising cases and mounting
pressure on the health care system. State health officials urge all
Coloradans to avoid gatherings, stay home when they’re sick, get
tested if they aren’t feeling well or have been exposed to the virus,
wear a mask, physically distance, and wash their hands
frequently.
The dial framework has five levels that guide a county’s response
to COVID19. Capacity restrictions for businesses, restaurants,
schools, places of worship, and other locations vary based on a
county’s dial level. A county’s dial level is determined by three
metrics: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19dial/covid19
dialdashboard
++ New cases: how much the virus is circulating in a county.
++ Percent positivity: whether there is sufficient COVID19 testing
to capture the level of virus transmission.
++ Impact on hospitalizations: whether hospitalizations are
increasing, stable, or declining.
This tool is intended to help counties determine when and how
they should move from one dial level to another. The COVID19
dial includes five levels, from least to most restrictive:
Protect Our Neighbors Careful: Local public health agencies are
able to contain surges in cases and outbreaks through testing,
case investigation, contact tracing, isolation, quarantine, site- specific closures, and enforcement of public health orders.
++ Safer at Home 1 Cautious: Less restrictive than Safer at
Home Level 2, this level is for counties with low virus
transmission that have not yet achieved Protect Our Neighbors.
++ Safer at Home 2 Concern: The baseline. While we are all still
safer at home, we are also able to practice greater social
distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces.
++ Safer at Home 3 High Risk: This is more restrictive than
Safer at Home Level 2, for counties experiencing increased
metrics. Action is needed, but Stay at Home may not be
warranted.
++ Stay at Home: Everyone is required to stay at home except for
grocery shopping, exercise and necessary activities. Only critical
businesses are open.
In order to move from a more restrictive level to a less restrictive
level, a county needs to meet and sustain the less restrictive
level’s required metrics for two weeks.

Community Safety: The state has released the following:
++ Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) updated
the Safer at Home public health order tonight. The order provides greater
flexibility to gyms located in counties in Safer at Home level 3.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14_GaVScXNeYPrT6ZmTw1MuU9_A1egOAd/view
Gyms will be allowed to operate with the following capacity limits per room
indoors or per designated activity area outdoors:
Safer at Home 1 → 25% capacity, 75 people, whichever is fewer.
Safer at Home 2 → 25% capacity, 50 people, whichever is fewer.
UPDATED: Safer at Home 3 → 25% capacity, 25 people, whichever is fewer.
++ the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE)
announced several Colorado counties are moving to stricter levels on the state’s
COVID19 dial. After two weeks of growing cases and mounting pressure on the
health care system, the following counties, in consultation with CDPHE, are
moving to more restrictive levels: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19

Public Health: Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment is still at a Level 1 status in response to COVID19;
however, the lifeline is changing from yellow to green
(stabilization). The lifeline has not fully returned to its “preincident
normal”, as the state continues to meet the needs of the public
and CDPHE is still performing critical services such as
monitoring, testing, resourcing and responding functions in
response to COVID19.
++ As of today there are 109,910 cases, 9089 hospitalized, 64
counties, 1,236,323 people tested, 2,288 deaths among cases,
2,105 deaths due to COVID19
++ The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) finalized its guidance for ski areas and resorts today.
The guidance goes into effect immediately. After releasing a draft
of the guidance on Oct. 14, the state reviewed feedback from
community members and organizations from across the state,
and incorporated feedback into the finalized guidance.

Medical Care: (NEW Info) Alternate Care Sites (ACS) On
October 5 the State of Colorado began deconstruction of two
alternative care sites. The Ranch Complex in Loveland and the
Western Memory Care Center in Grand Junction will complete
deconstruction around midNovember.
https://covid19.colorado.gov/pressrelease/stateofcolorado- beginsdeconstructionoftwoalternativecaresites
Patient Movement: UCC dispatch center is in "Cold status"
operational to support COVID19 patient movement.
Fatality Management: The COVID19 Fatality Management Plan
has been approved and signed. Will activate based on situational
needs.
Medical Supply Chain: Continuing to monitor and work within the
supply chain (Nationally), alternative means are available. The
Counties are encouraged to reach out to their stakeholders to
purchase PPE and cleaning supplies in preparation of the second
round of infections and increased cases.
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) provided an update on counties that have moved to
stricter levels of the COVID19 dial and counties that are
expected to move in the coming days.
These moves are indicative of rising cases and mounting
pressure on the health care system. State health officials urge all
Coloradans to avoid gatherings, stay home when they’re sick, get
tested if they aren’t feeling well or have been exposed to the virus,
wear a mask, physically distance, and wash their hands
frequently.
The dial framework has five levels that guide a county’s response
to COVID19. Capacity restrictions for businesses, restaurants,
schools, places of worship, and other locations vary based on a
county’s dial level. A county’s dial level is determined by three
metrics: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19dial/covid19
dialdashboard
++ New cases: how much the virus is circulating in a county.
++ Percent positivity: whether there is sufficient COVID19 testing
to capture the level of virus transmission.
++ Impact on hospitalizations: whether hospitalizations are
increasing, stable, or declining.
This tool is intended to help counties determine when and how
they should move from one dial level to another. The COVID19
dial includes five levels, from least to most restrictive:
Protect Our Neighbors Careful: Local public health agencies are
able to contain surges in cases and outbreaks through testing,
case investigation, contact tracing, isolation, quarantine, site- specific closures, and enforcement of public health orders.
++ Safer at Home 1 Cautious: Less restrictive than Safer at
Home Level 2, this level is for counties with low virus
transmission that have not yet achieved Protect Our Neighbors.
++ Safer at Home 2 Concern: The baseline. While we are all still
safer at home, we are also able to practice greater social
distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces.
++ Safer at Home 3 High Risk: This is more restrictive than
Safer at Home Level 2, for counties experiencing increased
metrics. Action is needed, but Stay at Home may not be
warranted.
++ Stay at Home: Everyone is required to stay at home except for
grocery shopping, exercise and necessary activities. Only critical
businesses are open.
In order to move from a more restrictive level to a less restrictive
level, a county needs to meet and sustain the less restrictive
level’s required metrics for two weeks.

Information in this report was gathered prior to 8:30 a.m.
IMPACTED LIFELINES AND KEY COMPONENTS
State Emergency Operations Center (SEOC) Status
Level 1
The State Emergency Operations Center is activated at Level 1 in support of 2020 elections. All functions are available for prioritizing and fulfilling
requests. Supplies of certain highdemand personal protective equipment remain constrained.
Due to COVID19, physical staffing within the State EOC will be carefully managed. Partners physically present in the EOC will vary at any time, and
remote coordination tools will be used. At this time, there is no need for Emergency Response Coordinators to report to the EOC unless specifically
contacted and requested.
SEOC hours are 08001700 Monday through Friday, or 24/7 via the state emergency line at 3032798855. All schedules are subject to change based
upon incident needs. All State EOC functions remain available to support current and future incidents.

Community Safety: The state has released the following:
++ Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) updated
the Safer at Home public health order tonight. The order provides greater
flexibility to gyms located in counties in Safer at Home level 3.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/14_GaVScXNeYPrT6ZmTw1MuU9_A1egOAd/view
Gyms will be allowed to operate with the following capacity limits per room
indoors or per designated activity area outdoors:
Safer at Home 1 → 25% capacity, 75 people, whichever is fewer.
Safer at Home 2 → 25% capacity, 50 people, whichever is fewer.
UPDATED: Safer at Home 3 → 25% capacity, 25 people, whichever is fewer.
++ the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE)
announced several Colorado counties are moving to stricter levels on the state’s
COVID19 dial. After two weeks of growing cases and mounting pressure on the
health care system, the following counties, in consultation with CDPHE, are
moving to more restrictive levels: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19

Public Health: Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment is still at a Level 1 status in response to COVID19;
however, the lifeline is changing from yellow to green
(stabilization). The lifeline has not fully returned to its “preincident
normal”, as the state continues to meet the needs of the public
and CDPHE is still performing critical services such as
monitoring, testing, resourcing and responding functions in
response to COVID19.
++ As of today there are 109,910 cases, 9089 hospitalized, 64
counties, 1,236,323 people tested, 2,288 deaths among cases,
2,105 deaths due to COVID19
++ The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) finalized its guidance for ski areas and resorts today.
The guidance goes into effect immediately. After releasing a draft
of the guidance on Oct. 14, the state reviewed feedback from
community members and organizations from across the state,
and incorporated feedback into the finalized guidance.

Medical Care: (NEW Info) Alternate Care Sites (ACS) On
October 5 the State of Colorado began deconstruction of two
alternative care sites. The Ranch Complex in Loveland and the
Western Memory Care Center in Grand Junction will complete
deconstruction around midNovember.
https://covid19.colorado.gov/pressrelease/stateofcolorado- beginsdeconstructionoftwoalternativecaresites
Patient Movement: UCC dispatch center is in "Cold status"
operational to support COVID19 patient movement.
Fatality Management: The COVID19 Fatality Management Plan
has been approved and signed. Will activate based on situational
needs.
Medical Supply Chain: Continuing to monitor and work within the
supply chain (Nationally), alternative means are available. The
Counties are encouraged to reach out to their stakeholders to
purchase PPE and cleaning supplies in preparation of the second
round of infections and increased cases.
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) provided an update on counties that have moved to
stricter levels of the COVID19 dial and counties that are
expected to move in the coming days.
These moves are indicative of rising cases and mounting
pressure on the health care system. State health officials urge all
Coloradans to avoid gatherings, stay home when they’re sick, get
tested if they aren’t feeling well or have been exposed to the virus,
wear a mask, physically distance, and wash their hands
frequently.
The dial framework has five levels that guide a county’s response
to COVID19. Capacity restrictions for businesses, restaurants,
schools, places of worship, and other locations vary based on a
county’s dial level. A county’s dial level is determined by three
metrics: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19dial/covid19
dialdashboard
++ New cases: how much the virus is circulating in a county.
++ Percent positivity: whether there is sufficient COVID19 testing
to capture the level of virus transmission.
++ Impact on hospitalizations: whether hospitalizations are
increasing, stable, or declining.
This tool is intended to help counties determine when and how
they should move from one dial level to another. The COVID19
dial includes five levels, from least to most restrictive:
Protect Our Neighbors Careful: Local public health agencies are
able to contain surges in cases and outbreaks through testing,
case investigation, contact tracing, isolation, quarantine, site- specific closures, and enforcement of public health orders.
++ Safer at Home 1 Cautious: Less restrictive than Safer at
Home Level 2, this level is for counties with low virus
transmission that have not yet achieved Protect Our Neighbors.
++ Safer at Home 2 Concern: The baseline. While we are all still
safer at home, we are also able to practice greater social
distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces.
++ Safer at Home 3 High Risk: This is more restrictive than
Safer at Home Level 2, for counties experiencing increased
metrics. Action is needed, but Stay at Home may not be
warranted.
++ Stay at Home: Everyone is required to stay at home except for
grocery shopping, exercise and necessary activities. Only critical
businesses are open.
In order to move from a more restrictive level to a less restrictive
level, a county needs to meet and sustain the less restrictive
level’s required metrics for two weeks.

++ Safer at Home 1 Cautious: Less restrictive than Safer at
Home Level 2, this level is for counties with low virus
transmission that have not yet achieved Protect Our Neighbors.
++ Safer at Home 2 Concern: The baseline. While we are all still
safer at home, we are also able to practice greater social
distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces.
++ Safer at Home 3 High Risk: This is more restrictive than
Safer at Home Level 2, for counties experiencing increased
metrics. Action is needed, but Stay at Home may not be
warranted.
++ Stay at Home: Everyone is required to stay at home except for
grocery shopping, exercise and necessary activities. Only critical
businesses are open.
In order to move from a more restrictive level to a less restrictive
level, a county needs to meet and sustain the less restrictive
level’s required metrics for two weeks.

++ the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE)
announced several Colorado counties are moving to stricter levels on the state’s
COVID19 dial. After two weeks of growing cases and mounting pressure on the
health care system, the following counties, in consultation with CDPHE, are
moving to more restrictive levels: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19

Public Health: Colorado Department of Public Health and
Environment is still at a Level 1 status in response to COVID19;
however, the lifeline is changing from yellow to green
(stabilization). The lifeline has not fully returned to its “preincident
normal”, as the state continues to meet the needs of the public
and CDPHE is still performing critical services such as
monitoring, testing, resourcing and responding functions in
response to COVID19.
++ As of today there are 109,910 cases, 9089 hospitalized, 64
counties, 1,236,323 people tested, 2,288 deaths among cases,
2,105 deaths due to COVID19
++ The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) finalized its guidance for ski areas and resorts today.
The guidance goes into effect immediately. After releasing a draft
of the guidance on Oct. 14, the state reviewed feedback from
community members and organizations from across the state,
and incorporated feedback into the finalized guidance.

Medical Care: (NEW Info) Alternate Care Sites (ACS) On
October 5 the State of Colorado began deconstruction of two
alternative care sites. The Ranch Complex in Loveland and the
Western Memory Care Center in Grand Junction will complete
deconstruction around midNovember.
https://covid19.colorado.gov/pressrelease/stateofcolorado- beginsdeconstructionoftwoalternativecaresites
Patient Movement: UCC dispatch center is in "Cold status"
operational to support COVID19 patient movement.
Fatality Management: The COVID19 Fatality Management Plan
has been approved and signed. Will activate based on situational
needs.
Medical Supply Chain: Continuing to monitor and work within the
supply chain (Nationally), alternative means are available. The
Counties are encouraged to reach out to their stakeholders to
purchase PPE and cleaning supplies in preparation of the second
round of infections and increased cases.
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment
(CDPHE) provided an update on counties that have moved to
stricter levels of the COVID19 dial and counties that are
expected to move in the coming days.
These moves are indicative of rising cases and mounting
pressure on the health care system. State health officials urge all
Coloradans to avoid gatherings, stay home when they’re sick, get
tested if they aren’t feeling well or have been exposed to the virus,
wear a mask, physically distance, and wash their hands
frequently.
The dial framework has five levels that guide a county’s response
to COVID19. Capacity restrictions for businesses, restaurants,
schools, places of worship, and other locations vary based on a
county’s dial level. A county’s dial level is determined by three
metrics: https://covid19.colorado.gov/data/covid19dial/covid19
dialdashboard
++ New cases: how much the virus is circulating in a county.
++ Percent positivity: whether there is sufficient COVID19 testing
to capture the level of virus transmission.
++ Impact on hospitalizations: whether hospitalizations are
increasing, stable, or declining.
This tool is intended to help counties determine when and how
they should move from one dial level to another. The COVID19
dial includes five levels, from least to most restrictive:
Protect Our Neighbors Careful: Local public health agencies are
able to contain surges in cases and outbreaks through testing,
case investigation, contact tracing, isolation, quarantine, site- specific closures, and enforcement of public health orders.
++ Safer at Home 1 Cautious: Less restrictive than Safer at
Home Level 2, this level is for counties with low virus
transmission that have not yet achieved Protect Our Neighbors.
++ Safer at Home 2 Concern: The baseline. While we are all still
safer at home, we are also able to practice greater social
distancing in our great outdoors than in confined indoor spaces.
++ Safer at Home 3 High Risk: This is more restrictive than
Safer at Home Level 2, for counties experiencing increased
metrics. Action is needed, but Stay at Home may not be
warranted.
++ Stay at Home: Everyone is required to stay at home except for
grocery shopping, exercise and necessary activities. Only critical
businesses are open.
In order to move from a more restrictive level to a less restrictive
level, a county needs to meet and sustain the less restrictive
level’s required metrics for two weeks.
