County Guidelines for Close Contacts
Asymptomatic close contacts are not required to quarantine; they may remain on campus if they follow all requirements for close contacts. Specifically:
- Monitor symptoms for 10 days.
- Wear a highly protective mask around others indoors, except when eating or drinking, for 10 days after the last date of exposure.
- Test with an FDA-authorized viral COVID-19 test (e.g., PCR or Antigen test, including at-home tests) within 3-5 days since the last date of exposure.*
*NOTE: Asymptomatic students and staff close contacts who were previously infected with COVID within the last 90 days are exempt from testing but must mask around others indoors for 10 days after the last date of exposure.
Close Contact: The preferred method for determining which persons are considered to have been exposed to a case (close contact) during the infectious period is if they shared the same indoor airspace at school with the infected person for 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period. In large indoor airspaces: those considered exposed may be limited to 1) those in a pre-defined or identifiable group (e.g., teammates, club members, cohort, etc.) or 2) those within 6 feet of the infected person for 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period within that large indoor airspace.
