C. Individuals at Risk of Severe Illness from COVID-19 are urged to stay in their residence at all times except as necessary to seek medical care, and this becomes more critical as a county's level in the Dial becomes more restrictive. Individuals at Risk of Severe Illness from COVID-19 cannot be compelled to work for any business or government function, including a Critical Business or Critical Government Function, during the pendency of this pandemic emergency. People who are sick must stay in their residence at all times except as necessary to seek medical care, and must not go to work, even for a Critical Business, identified in Appendix A of this Order. D. Individuals who are sick or are experiencing flu -like symptoms should get tested for COVID-19. If an individual has tested positive for COVID-19 and/or has developed symptoms of COVID-19, including early or mild symptoms (such as cough and shortness of breath), they should be in isolation (staying away from others) until they are released by public health. In most cases, individuals are released from isolation when they are fever -free, without medication, for twenty-four (24) hours, other symptoms have improved, and at least ten (10) days have passed since symptoms first appeared. A limited number of people with severe illness may require longer isolation. Coloradans who are sick and receive negative COVID-19 test results should continue to stay home while they are sick and should consult with their healthcare provider about the need for additional testing and the appropriate time to resume normal activities. E. Governmental and other entities are strongly urged to make shelter available to people experiencing homelessness as soon as possible and to the maximum extent practicable, and are authorized to take all reasonable steps necessary to provide non -congregate sheltering along with necessary support services to members of the public in their jurisdiction as necessary to protect all members of the community.
