Frequently Asked Questions about Contact Notification

Notifying your recent contacts helps to control the spread of a respiratory virus by quickly informing people that they should take health precautions

If you become sick with COVID-19, flu, or RSV, you can protect other people from getting sick by immediately wearing a mask, staying home and away from other people, and notifying the people who you have been around most recently.  

After receiving test results, you can also contact your healthcare provider for more personalized information on your at-home recovery, treatment, and vaccine options.
