CARSON CITY, NV — Today, Nevada Health Response issued recommendations and guidance for celebrating the holidays. 

As Nevadans plan their holiday activities,  Nevada Health Response wants you to consider and follow these guidelines and best practices.

Unvaccinated Nevadans having close contact to someone with COVID-19 should:

  1. Stay home and quarantine for 14 days after your last contact with a person who has COVID-19.
  2. Watch for fever (>100.4?F), cough, shortness of breath, or other symptoms of COVID-19 and contact your healthcare provider immediately if symptoms appear.
  3. Maintain social distancing with people you live with, especially people who are at higher risk for getting very sick from COVID-19.

Vaccinated Nevadans having close contact to someone with COVID-19 should do the following:

  1. Wear a mask indoors in public for 14 days following exposure or until a negative test result.
  2. Get tested 5-7 days after close contact with someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19.

Get tested and isolate immediately if you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.
