This testing also includes students who have an exemption and employees who have not submitted a Vaccination Attestation Form. As a reminder, individuals are NOT fully vaccinated until two weeks after their second dose in a 2-dose series (i.e. the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines) or two weeks after a single-dose vaccine (i.e. the Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen vaccine). If you do not meet these requirements you are considered partially vaccinated and must continue with weekly testing<br><br>The Clinton County Health Department conducts contact tracing and determines who needs to be quarantined based on their level of contact. Individuals who are fully vaccinated do not have to quarantine unless they develop symptoms. Vaccinated students can attend pool testing three to five days after exposure.<br><br><b><u>Campus Masking Requirement</u></b><br>All are encouraged to continue wearing a mask, practicing social distancing, washing hands, avoiding large social gatherings, and staying home when sick. We will continue to seek guidance from the Governor's Office and the State Department of Health and will update you as we learn more.<br><br>Due to the increased presence of COVID-19 variants, the indoor face covering/masking remains in effect. This requires everyone on campus to wear a mask while indoors regardless of vaccination status.
