If you have covid but are asymptomatic you have to work

The new normal.

Yeah, I think this was passed several months back...technically teachers were included in this but I don't think school districts have enforced it yet

Na, this was said by an employee to me of said hospital.

Poorly written, tangential anecdotes aren't very persuasive

Who cares?

Unless they are sneezing & snotting on other people it doesn’t matter

Maybe people need to social distance & wash their hands & be responsible for themselves & not worry about other people

Someone who works there told me this but then again you knew what I was saying troll

Well if you want covid to go away this is how you have to do it. Everybodys got to get it and get over it.

This. Mask mandates and social distancing are just prolonging it.

I agree tbh, but what about still being able to spread it? Why Hasn't the state opened up since we supposedly Over turned the mandates? Our leaders are failing us.

Agreed, Well why all the fricking mandates then

can't cite this but I know for fact from a close friend who works at a hospital in Lafayette, that administrators has told their employees(doctors,nurses, maintenance etc) that if you have covid and are asymptomatic, you still have to go to work. :O

Well that’s not following CDC guidelines. So I seriously doubt your source is correct. Maybe they are just confused.


If you have been exposed to someone with COVID and work at a hospital you can still work as long as you are asymptomatic but must always wear a mask and still quarantine away from others outside of work for 14 days.

The moment you have any symptoms you are to not work and get tested.

If you test positive for COVID you cannot return to work for at least 10 days following a positive test or start of symptoms and the last 24 hours you are fever free without the use of antipyretics and no worsening symptoms.


ETA: This is what we do at the hospital I work for. I investigate COVID staff exposures on a daily basis as part of my job so I’m very familiar with this process.
