A full 14-day quarantine period from the last day you are around a contagious person remains the safest way to reduce the spread of COVID-19. We strongly recommend quarantining for this entire period. However, if you don't develop any symptoms by the tenth day after your exposure, you may consider ending your quarantine four days early. Continue to watch for symptoms in the following days. If any develop, immediately self-isolate and contact us or your healthcare provider.
***Please note, you must quarantine for the full 14 days if you are: a student or staff member of child care, k-12 schools, or a college/university; or a resident or patient in the following settings: long-term care facilities, adult foster homes, residential healthcare settings, and inpatient healthcare settings.
Guidance for Vaccinated Individuals
Keep taking all prevention steps until you are fully vaccinated. You may need to take precautions even if you are fully vaccinated. This may include quarantining or isolating if exposed to a person with COVID-19 or experiencing symptoms. Please work with public health contact tracers for guidance specific to your situation.
People are considered fully vaccinated:
2 weeks AFTER their second dose in a 2-dose series, like the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines,
or
2 weeks AFTER a single-dose vaccine, like Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine
