Health care workers on Sunday faced off against protesters calling for an end to Colorado’s coronavirus stay-at-home order.

Two medical workers in scrubs and N95 masks were spotted blocking horn-honking motorists who had gathered at the State Capitol in Denver to challenge the mitigation methods, photos and videos posted on social media show.

“They were blocking the roads until the police force stepped in,” photojournalist Alyson McClaran, who posted images of the exchange on Facebook, told the New York Times.

“People were putting their cars right up against them.”

Video of the incident showed a woman in an American flag T-shirt hanging out of her car window to yell at the health care workers.

“Go to China if you want communism,” she says, over loud honking.

“You can go to work, why can’t I go to work?” the woman asks, referring to the closure of non-essential businesses in the state.

The workers didn’t appear to respond.

Several hundred demonstrators lined the streets to the city in their vehicles while honking their horns before circling it as pedestrians.

Many waved American flags and held signs that read “End the Virus, Not the Economy” and “We need stability to stay healthy,” according to the Denver Post.
