Announcement Message
Updated COVID-19 Guidance on Employee Close Contacts
SFDPH guidance has changed, such that staff who are identified as close contacts and not up to date on their vaccination do NOT need to quarantine. The close contact memo is in the process of being translated.
In a non-healthcare workplace setting, asymptomatic employees who are vaccinated with a primary series and booster eligible but NOT yet boosted are NOT required to stay home from work after exposure if:
- A negative test is obtained in 3-5 days after contact, AND
- You wear a well-fitting mask around others for a total of 10 days, AND
- You continue to have no symptoms.
