COVID-19 Prevention Procedures
If you're sick, like the flu, stay home until you start feeling better, and use your sick time. Get vaccinated to shorten your recovery time if you get COVID, if your doctor says the vaccine is ok for you. The Federal Government may make free available again at COVIDTests.gov. See our COVID-19 Prevention Plan for more details on how to protect yourself and others from this potentially deadly virus.
The latest Board-approved version of the Inyo County Employee COVID-19 Prevention Procedures was adopted by the Board on 3/21/2023, in compliance with Cal/OSHA's nonemergency standard of 2/3/2023, which is in effect until 2/2025, with some updates since then.
Effective 1/2024, there was a change in how outbreaks are calculated and when to isolate. Outbreaks are calculated using a seven day base instead of a 14 day base. Effective 5/2024, the isolation and testing rules were discontinued. However, the rest of the rules and our CPP continue through 2/2025.
Effective 2/2025, we will probably add a paragraph about COVID and other similar infectious diseases to the IIPP and eliminate the Covid Prevention Plan separate document. We're working on it.
