Protect our Neighbors Metrics

• Sufficient hospital bed capacity:
• Hospitals in the county or region (as defined by the local public health agency) have sufficient

bed capacity to manage a 20 percent surge in hospital admissions or patient transfers.

• Sufficient PPE Supply:
• Local hospitals must have two weeks of PPE available based on current PPE use standards.
• Stable or declining COVID-19 hospitalizations:
• Stable (no greater than 25% increase) or declining counts of new confirmed COVID-19

hospitalizations in the county’s referral hospitals (as defined by the local public health agency) in the last 14 days compared to previous 14 day period OR no more than two new hospital admissions of county residents with confirmed COVID-19 on a single day in the last 14 days .

Protect our Neighbors Metrics

• Fewer new cases:
• 25 or fewer new cases/100,000 people in the past two weeks (two-week cumulative

incidence), excluding cases among residents of congregate facilities (senior care,

• ther residential care, youth corrections, corrections) experiencing outbreaks.

OR

• Two-week average molecular test positivity rate of less than 5% AND county is

meeting minimum testing rate (0.75 per 1,000 population) AND two-week cumulative incidence is no greater than 50 cases/100,000 people in the past two weeks.

Protect our Neighbors Metrics

• Sufficient testing capacity:
• County or region has the capacity to test (collect samples and testing partnerships) 15 people per

10,000 residents per day.

• Ability to implement case investigation and contact tracing protocol.
• Local public health agency is able to implement Colorado’s case investigation and contact tracing

protocol for at least 85 percent of assigned cases within 24 hours.

• Documented surge-capacity plan for case investigation and contact tracing:
• Local public health agency has a documented surge-capacity plan that they can investigate and

contact trace their share, based on population, of our state’s overall 500 cases per day goal. This means they need a plan to be able to investigate and contact trace up to 8.7 cases per 100,000 population per day .

• Documented strategies to offer testing to close contacts:
• Local public health agency has documented strategies in place to offer testing , in conjunction with

health care systems and other testing locations, to close contacts of outbreak-associated cases .
