I think I have COVID-19

Español

Take these steps if you are not feeling well or have been around someone with COVID-19:

  • Review all the symptoms of COVID-19 - most common symptoms include fever, dry cough, and tiredness.
  • Stay home and away from others except to get medical care. Call your doctor or a nurseline or telehealth for advice.
    • If you have a fever, cough, and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention immediately. Call by telephone first, if you can.
  • Find a testing site near you to get tested, if you have symptoms.
  • Get rest and drink plenty of fluids. Take your temperature often and monitor your symptoms daily. Your doctor may also suggest you take over-the-counter medication for fever.

  1. Isolate
  2. Protect Your Health and Others
  3. Be Prepared

Isolate if you have symptoms and/or test positive

When you are sick with COVID-19 symptoms, you should stay home and isolate yourself from others. Isolation keeps someone who is sick with COVID-19 symptoms or tested positive for COVID-19 away from others, even in their own home. Do not go to work outside of your home, school or child care, or public places. Take care of yourself so you can feel better.

Isolation Guidance, regardless of vaccination status:

  • Stay at home in isolation and avoid contact with others for at least 5 days
  • You can leave your home after 5 days if:
    • You have no symptoms OR
    • Your symptoms are resolving after 5 days AND at least 24 hours have passed since your fever resolved without using fever reducing medicine
  • Continue to wear a well-fitting mask when around others for an additional 5 days
  • If your symptoms have not resolved after 5 days, or if you have a fever, you must continue to isolate until the above criteria are met
