COVID Resources: What to Do if Your Child has Covid Symptoms, Exposure, Etc.
Do you know what do do if your child has a symptom(s) of COVID-19 (i.e. a sore throat), AND has NOT had a close contact with someone with COVID? What about if you are notified they are a close contact of someone with COVID-19 at school? And finally, what do you do if they test COVID-positive?
