How long are UO students and employees required to stay in quarantine if they are considered to be a close contact with a positive COVID case?
The CDC guidance emphasizes that local public health authorities make the final decisions about how long quarantine should last in the communities they serve, based on local conditions and needs. Lane County Public Health continues to recommend a 14-day quarantine in most cases and does not sanction a seven-day quarantine in any circumstance given the severity of the pandemic in our county. Based on this guidance, at this time the University of Oregon continues to require a 14-day quarantine for students living on campus and for employees before they can return to work on campus.
