COVID-19 Quarantine Guidelines Update:
The following information communicates updated guidelines regarding quarantine length for a close contact of a positive case of COVID-19:
-A one time close contact will quarantine for at least 10 days and return to work or school after 10 days if no symptoms have developed (even the development of one less common symptom will cause for the individual to remain in quarantine for 14 days).
-A person can test on day five (5) or later of their 10 day quarantine and return to work or school after seven (7) days of quarantine with a negative test result(this is regarding the one time close contact only).
-A close contact to someone that lives in your home will be a 14 day quarantine after your last close contact with the individual prior to isolation.
-14 day quarantine is still recommended as the safest time frame.
