Residents at a nursing and rehabilitation facility in Greeley, Colo., organized a protest last week against the state's coronavirus restrictions.
About 20 residents, many in wheelchairs, gathered outside Fairacres Manor on Thursday during the roughly two-hour demonstration.
Some held signs, including one that read: "We want families back.” “They want to be able to hug their grandchildren, they want to be able to hold the hands of their loved ones,” said Ben Gonzales, an assistant administrator at the facility, according to Denver's KCNC-TV.
Gonzales noted that residents are able to see visitors but they must maintain the proper amount of social distancing and can’t have any physical contact.
