Stay home if you are sick with any symptoms. Maintain social distancing, wear masks and wash hands frequently. If a known exposure has happened (less than six feet for more than 15 minutes during the course of a day), stay home for 14 days from the last contact. Testing is recommended if symptoms develop.
