COVID Positive
You must quarantine/self-isolate for 10 days from symptom onset AND be symptom free for 24 hours on day 10 to exit quarantine on day 11. If asymptomatic, quarantine begins from the date of the positive test and would still follow the 10 day guideline. All positive results will be reported to the local Health Department and they will contact you with further instructions for contact tracing.
Contact Tracing
Notify ALL individuals you have contacted without a mask for more than 15 minutes over a 24 hour period, at less than 6 feet starting 48 hours prior to symptoms starting. Their quarantine would be 10 days with no symptoms and no testing. The individual can test at 5 days post exposure if unvaccinated and return to school/work on day 8, given negative test and no symptoms. Repeat testing is not required at the end of quarantine period unless indicated by public health official or employer.
If Asymptomatic & Known Exposure
If you opt for no testing, the recommended quarantine is 14 days from date of last contact with infected individual, regardless of negative test result, as symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure.
Indirect Contact (not directly in contact with person with a positive test)
Continue social distancing, wearing a mask, and proper hand hygiene. Monitor your symptoms daily. No quarantine is required unless the person who you were indirectly in contact with, later tests positive. You would then need to enter a 14 day quarantine starting from the date of last contact.
Vaccinated individuals do not need to quarantine, but still need to wear a mask. You can be tested at day 3-5 from exposure. If negative, you can discontinue wearing a mask, but still need to self-monitor symptoms for 14 days. If you opt not to test and have no symptoms, a mask should be worn for 14 days.
Quarantine for Schools
For schools with a universal mask policy (regardless of DHHR map color) quarantining students, and staff who have been exposed to a person with COVID is NOT required, if masks are worn at the point of exposure (including extracurricular activities). Students attending a county with a universal mask requirement and are unvaccinated will need to quarantine if within 6 feet of a confirmed case in high-risk areas such as cafeterias and extracurricular settings where mask are not worn.
