Important COVID Update
Effective Immediately
Guidance Regarding ALL Respiratory Viral Illnesses
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) has updated recommendations for schools and the general public to prevent the spread of any respiratory viruses. The new guidance applies to any respiratory viral illness such as Covid, Flu or RSV. Symptoms of a viral illness include fever, chills, fatigue, cough, runny nose, and headache.
There is no longer any statewide isolation or quarantine requirements for those who test positive for Covid.
The new guidance states that even with a positive Covid test, individuals may return to school/work and resume normal activities when:
- Symptoms are improving AND
- Fever free for at least 24 hours without the use of fever reducing medications like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin)
