WPIAL Quarantine Protocol

Below is the protocol from the WPIAL. If you have been in close contact with a person who tested positive for COVID please follow this recommended procedure.

Quarantine:
Quarantine if you have been in close contact (within 6 feet of someone for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period) with someone who has COVID-19, unless you have been fully vaccinated.

People who are fully vaccinated DO NOT need to quarantine after contact with someone who had COVID-19 unless they have symptoms.

However, fully vaccinated people should get tested 3-5 days after their exposure, even if they don’t have symptoms and wear a mask indoors in public for 14 days following exposure or until their test result is negative.

What to do:
Stay home for 14 days after your last contact with a person who has COVID-19.

Watch for fever (100.4•F), cough, shortness of breath, or other
symptoms of COVID-19.

If possible, stay away from people you live with, especially people who are at higher risk for
getting very sick from COVID-19.
