    Help!! We are three days from our start of camp and now have 4 positive staff. All staff were negative the day prior to arrival and then we had one positive staff of day of pre-camp number 3. Two more positive the next day and one more today. I am in a panic that we will run into the same issue with campers. We are a residential camp and have minimal areas for isolation. All the staff are asymptomatic except for one with a sore throat. Any words of wisdom??

    Hi Lisa! Feel free to call the ACH hotline for a conversation with Tracey Gaslin about your situation.502.830.8393

    You can find CDC Guidance https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/overnight-camp.html

    The recommendation for positive individuals is to isolate for 5 days, then re-test. If they are negative they may re-join the group but it is suggested that they then mask for 5 an additional days.

    I understand the concern for not only the space to isolate positive individuals, but the loss of staff can be significant.

    Best,

    Mary
