To reduce the spread of infection, PUSD is offering some simple reminders and precautions. These are im-portant for everyone but especially for those who are more vulnerable to severe illness and death from COVID-19. Masking Masks are recommended but not required for students, teachers, staff, visitors, and volunteers regardless of vaccination status. PUSD continues to require masking at testing and vaccination clinics, and in school health offices for students, staff, and visitors exhibiting COVID-19 symp-toms. If a PUSD employee tests positive, masks are required when returning to work after five days of isolation through Day 10. The LAC DPH recommends that everyone mask around others for: • 10 days if you are exposed to COVID-19 • Days 6-10 after a COVID-19 infection, if leaving isolation Testing COVID-19 testing remains a valuable tool. According to the LAC DPH, you should test: • After you have been exposed to COVID-19 • If you have symptoms, such as a fever, cough, sore throat or fatigue • Before visiting someone at high risk for severe illness Families and staff may pick up free at-home test kits at all PUSD schools and at: PUSD Education Center 351 S. Hudson Ave. Health Programs Room 126 Pasadena, CA 91109 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. Free at-home tests are also widely available through community partners and at libraries and public health clinics throughout Los Angeles County. For more information, vis-it http:// publichealth.lacounty.gov/covidtests The California Department of Public Health has issued a blanket extension indicating that rapid antigen tests (at-home and professional use) are not bound by their expiration date, and rather, they are deemed valid tests as long as the control line of the test shows up when reading the re-sult. For more information please visit https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/ coronavirus-covid-19-and-medical-devices/home-otc-covid-19-diagnostic-tests#list. If you test positive: • Stay home and away from other people for at least 5 full days. It is recommended that students wear a mask when returning to school through day 10. PUSD employees must wear a mask when returning to work through day 10. • Consult a health care provider to access treatment. If you don’t have a provider, call the Public Health Call Center at 1-833-540-0473, seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Vaccines Later this month, a new COVID-19 vaccine will be available for increased protection against newer COVID strains. Staying up to date on recommended vaccines protects us from getting serious illnesses. By getting vaccinated, we also protect those who can’t get vaccinated, like in-fants and people with weakened immune systems. Vaccinations help keep schools safe and help avoid disruptions to important (and fun) activities. If you have questions or concerns about getting the latest COVID vaccine, please talk with your health care provider, school site nurse, visit publichealth.lacounty.gov or email healthprograms@ pusd.us Mountain Views News 80 W Sierra Madre Blvd. No. 327 Sierra Madre, Ca. 91024 Office: 626.355.2737 Fax: 626.609.3285 Email: editor@mtnviewsnews.com Website: www.mtnviewsnews.com | ||||||||||||||||||||
