Have I been exposed?

Ask yourself these questions:

 

1. Have you been in contact with someone who has COVID? Assume people with COVID symptoms have COVID.

If yes, go to question 2. If no, you have not been exposed.

 

2. Were you within 6 feet of that person for at least 15 cumulative minutes? Exposure can be cumulative over the period of a day. For example, 5 minutes exposure + 5 minutes exposure + 5 minutes exposure over one day would equal an exposure. 

If yes, go to question 3. If no, you have not been exposed.


3. Did they have symptoms when you were with them?

If yes, you were exposed and need to quarantine for 10 days. See instructions for quarantine. If no, go to question 4. 


4. Did they develop symptoms within 2 days (48 hours) after you were with them? If yes, you were exposed and need to quarantine for 10 days. See instructions for quarantine.   For example, if you saw the COVID-positive person on July 1 and they developed symptoms on July 2 or 3, you are exposed. If they did not develop symptoms until July 4 or later, you were not exposed. 


5. If the COVID positive never develop symptoms, were you within 6 feet of that person for at least 15 cumulative minutes during the two days before their test date?

If yes, you were exposed and need to quarantine for 10 days. If no, you have not been exposed.

QUARANTINE INSTRUCTIONS

Testing in quarantine

Anyone could be contagious today without knowing it

 Anyone may feel fine today but could develop symptoms in the next day or two. Anyone could be contagious today without knowing it. That is why it is so important for us to follow the guidance, distance 6 feet and wear a mask 

  • It takes 3-4 days for the virus to incubate in the body and show up on the test
  • If you are in quarantine and have no symptoms but are      worried you will get sick, you can test 3-4 days after your first      exposure
  • If you test negative, you still need to stay in quarantine as you still may become ill
