DENVER – Officials in five Denver-area counties announced stay at home orders on Wednesday that will restrict the movement of more than 2 million people in an effort to slow the spread of the coronavirus.
The orders from health departments covering Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Douglas and Jefferson counties will go into effect Thursday and follow a stay at home order for Denver, which took effect Tuesday.
As of Tuesday, Colorado had more than 900 cases of the virus and 11 people have died, according to the state health department.
