New COVID Guidelines

The Center for Disease Control (C.D.C.) has issued new guidelines for the current

COVID – 19 conditions. The management at the Strattec Unit has agreed to follow these guidelines.

 

  • If you have COVID - 19, you should isolate for five days. After the first five days, if you don’t have any symptoms, and you haven’t run a fever for over twenty-four hours, then you should wear a mask for the next five days to minimize the risk of infecting others.
  • If you are exposed to someone who has COVID -19:
    • and you are unvaccinated, or it has been more than six months since your last vaccination, and have not had your booster shot, you should isolate for five days, followed by wearing a mask for five more days.
    • and you are vaccinated, and have had your booster shot, you do not need to isolate, but you should wear a mask for ten days after being exposed.
    • Anyone who is exposed should get tested five days after they were exposed.
    • If you have any symptoms, you should immediately isolate until a negative test confirms that your symptoms are not due to COVID – 19.

-In Solidarity,

 

Brian Barnes 

Unit President
