EXPOSURE and INFECTION GUIDELINES:  

The Virginia Department of Health (VDH) has adopted the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations to shorten isolation and quarantine periods for the public.

 If You Test Positive (Isolate)
Everyone, regardless of vaccination status, should:

  • Stay home (isolate) for 5 days after you test positive.
  • Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth when around others for 10 days.
  • If you have no symptoms OR your symptoms are improving after 5 days with no fever, you can leave your home while wearing a mask around others.
  • Continue to isolate after day 5 if symptoms do not improve. Seek medical care for any new or worsening symptoms.

The highest risk of spreading COVID-19 is during the first 5 days, but spread is still possible for up to 10 days after infection. People may choose to isolate for the full 10 days after testing positive for COVID-19.

If You are Exposed to COVID-19 (Quarantine)

Stay home (quarantine) for 5 days. (accommodations mat be made for fully vaccinated individuals - please contact ReturnToPlay@arlingtonsoccer.com to review your case).
Wear a mask that covers your nose and mouth when around others for 10 days.
Test on Day 5, if possible.
If you develop symptoms, get tested and stay home.
