SCHD Modified Disease Investigation Protocol

Modified Disease Investigation

• The Health Department has prioritized COVID-19 case investigations based on the level of risk for the spread of disease.
• Disease investigators will investigate positive cases in the following order of priority: cases tested by the Health Department, cases reported from clusters and potential clusters, cases reported from schools, cases in school-aged children (not reported by schools), and other cases as resources allow. 
• To help contain the spread of disease, if you test positive, you should reach out to your own close contacts and let them know of their potential exposure and about the 5 day in-home quarantine with 5 additional days wearing a mask under the guidance above. If they have questions, they can call the Health Department at 316-660-1022.
