If you can perform your job at home, I feel like it would be really hard for them to argue with you given people have been working from home for a couple months already and you have medical conditions that make you vulnerable.

Thanks for the advice. There is no work to do from home due to the nature of my job. Also I work at a large university, so my boss and HR are limited in their ability to support me. I'm currently relying on "the generosity" of the US government to pay me (less than I was making at work, which was barely enough) to stay home. They can take it away at any point. I have minimal paid leave available and need each paycheck.

Up to 19,000 confirmed cases in my state. We could reopen further later this week.
