Quarantine Guidance for Daycares
The Lake County Health Department continues to recommend only 14-day quarantine periods in high-risk, congregate settings such as daycare centers. Shorter quarantine options are less effective at preventing COVID-19 transmission in these settings. Even a small increased risk of transmission could result in many new infections.
Post-Vaccination Guidance
As we slowly ramp up vaccination efforts for child care workers in the county, I wanted to share post-vaccination guidance from IDPH: Post-Vaccine-Guidance-Schools.pdf (isbe.net)
