COVID-19

When people get sick with a respiratory virus, the updated guidance recommends that they stay home and away from others. For people with COVID-19 and influenza, treatment is available and can lessen symptoms and lower the risk of severe illness. The recommendations suggest returning to normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, symptoms are improving overall, and if a fever was present, it has been gone without use of a fever-reducing medication. If symptoms are mild and no fever is present then no quarantine is required but it is recommended that for the next five days that people wear a properly fitted mask while around others, practice good hand hygiene and try to socially distance themselves from others.
