Announcement Message
As San Francisco has moved down into the Yellow tier, there is new SFDPH guidance for COVID protocols & responses regarding close contacts and testing.
Quarantine and Isolation
-
Close contacts must stay in home quarantine for 10 full days after they were last in close contact with the person with COVID-19.
-
Close contacts who have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19 do not have to quarantine after close contact with someone with COVID-19, as long as they are asymptomatic.
-
Close contacts who have had COVID-19 within the previous 3 months, they do not have to quarantine after close contact with someone with COVID-19, as long as they are asymptomatic.
-
Staff and students who have been identified as close contacts and are on a 14 day quarantine may return to work immediately if they are fully vaccinated (two weeks after second dose).
Testing
-
Routine testing of asymptomatic staff and students, especially those who have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19, is not recommended.
-
Per the Health and Safety MOU with the Unions of SF:
-
In the yellow tier, 20% of staff across the District should be tested every two weeks.
-
20% of student testing stays the same
-
COLOR Testing schedules for student and staff testing will stay the same; however:
-
Staff who are fully vaccinated (two weeks after second dose) do not have to participate in testing
-
We encourage staff who have not received the vaccine to get tested during their school site's testing day.
