- Take Action If You're Positive or Exposed
Because of the large number of positive COVID-19 cases in our community, those with a positive COVID test may not hear from the Public Health department.
Let your employer know if you were infectious while at work. Employers can find resources for workplace exposures here.
If you were a close contact of someone who tested positive for COVID-19, you must follow the Guidance on Isolation and Quarantine.
A "close contact" is defined by the CDC as someone who was within 6 feet of an infected person for a total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period starting from 2 days before illness onset (or, for asymptomatic patients, 2 days prior to their test) until the time the patient is isolated.
