Broomfield’s COVID-19 one-week incidence has been increasing since Feb. 16. This means more people are being exposed to positive cases in our community. To help stop the spread of COVID-19, remember that you should quarantine after you’ve been exposed to someone with COVID-19, but before you get sick.
A person in quarantine is required to:
- Stay home;
- Not go to work, school or extracurricular activities;
- Avoid other people; and
- Watch for symptoms.
A 14-day quarantine is the safest option and should be used by people who have regular close contact with high-risk individuals. This includes people who live or work in residential or congregate living facilities or people who have had close contact with someone infected with a COVID-19 variant of concern.
A 10-day quarantine is appropriate for most people who do not have contact with high-risk individuals.
