Personal Tool to Evaluate Your Symptoms and Circumstances Before Coming to Campus
PERSONAL TOOL TO EVALUATE YOUR SYMPTOMS AND CIRCUMSTANCES BEFORE COMING TO CAMPUS
This questionnaire is for your personal use to monitor your daily health before coming to work for the day or going to campus for classes or other activities.
If you have any of the following symptoms, please stay home and call your supervisor if you are an employee. If the symptoms are severe, contact your healthcare provider for further instructions.
- New cough (not related to chronic condition)
- Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing
- Fever
- Chills
- Fatigue
- Muscle pain
- New loss of taste or smell
- Sore throat
- New headache
- Diarrhea, nausea, or vomiting
Once you begin your day, continue to be aware of any changes in your health such as fever, coughing, and/or difficulty breathing. If you experience any of the symptoms listed above, you should return to your residence and notify your supervisor if you are an employee. If the symptoms are severe, contact your healthcare provider for further instructions.
You should also stay home if any of the following apply:
- You have been tested for the coronavirus and are awaiting results. - Stay home until you know the results.
- You have tested positive for the coronavirus. - Stay home for at least ten days after testing positive or after you are fever-free for 72 hours without taking fever-reducing medications – whichever is longer. County Health will release you.
- You are unvaccinated and have had close contact (within 6 feet for more than ten minutes) with someone who tested positive for the coronavirus, or a member of your household has tested positive. - Refer to directions of any public health or other authority determining that you are a close contact. Current KDHE guidance is to stay home for recommended 14 days and return to campus if no symptoms, with the option of earlier release IF no symptoms and completion of a ten-day quarantine from the last date of contact or a seven day quarantine period with a negative test at least five days after the last date of contact.
- A member of your household has been tested for the coronavirus and is awaiting results. - Stay home until the results are known. Refer to paragraph 3 above.
- For travel restrictions, refer to KDHE travel-related quarantine list. (Note: As of May 14, 2021, ECHD has indicated that it will not be enforcing the KDHE travel restrictions.) CDC information on potential travel restrictions is accessible here.
