Based upon the decreasing number of positive COVID-19 cases, and in accordance with CDC guidance, the Pettis County Health Center will decrease the time required for quarantine for those people exposed to a positive case not within a household from 14 to 10 days.
A news release from Administrator JoAnn Martin says examples are sports teams, places of employment where preventative measures are being used or other places where contact was for a short period of time. Within a household, the quarantine period will remain 14 days, as research has shown that an individual living in a household with a positive individual has a higher risk of developing the disease throughout the entire 14-day period.
