We can ask Josephine, they have not gone over that yet. Thanks!

we have 4 cases now in kindergarten. parents are asking if we will be testing the entire class in school?

Can you clarify if there is a day zero when counting from positive test date? Or is test date = day #1.

are we required to do that

is testing for students who have symptoms and get sent home but are not a close contact, still a recommendation ?

I don't think the grid specifies but I am assuming- if they test back after five day isolation, they still need to wear a mask through Day 10?

great thanks. my audio is not working. We recommend that the families test at home

If a student is already testing negative repeatedly prior to day

Could you explain a bit more on Shared or same indoor air space and does this cancel the 6 feet apart we used prior.

Are we using the test date or the symptoms date to determine return to work or school eligibility. I thought in one of our zoom meetings it was said that we were only using test dates and no longer using symptom dates.

Also, so long as they are following guidelines to test, students with mild cold-like symptoms do not need to be wearing masks at school?

That was perfect and thanks

Do we know if CalOsha is aligned with the newest updates from CDPH?

Hi Jennifer! Welcome to our meetings.

Jennifer was our school investigator for a while and we loved working with her! Congrats Jennifer!

I am so sorry I have no idea how that message was sent 🤦

:D

what is the new definition of close contact?

Close Contact:Someone sharing the same indoor airspace, e.g., home, clinic waiting room, airplane etc., for a cumulative total of 15 minutes or more over a 24-hour period (for example, three individual 5-minute exposures for a total of 15 minutes) during an infected person's (laboratory-confirmed or a clinical diagnosis) infectious period.

thanks

Are they close contacts or an exposure?

"shared air space" still applies even with HVAC systems?

yes

That was a great question Leila!

Does the shared air space rule apply to an adult only event where the group were all 6 feet apart?

Any updates on reporting requirements for summer? If no updates now, are some expected soon. Need to work on staffing

Would it be a good practice to have a students test before an event like prom?

if our school runs a summer camp does that fall under the same criteria

You're the best Michelle
