COVID 19: Please contact PCM to be assessed for referral. The PCM may ask you these questions: How close was the contact? Less than 6 feet apart? Both wearing mask? Person appear ill at the time? Outdoors or in a poorly ventilated, crowded tight space? Less than ten minutes? Do you or your family have any current COVID 19 symptoms.

Yes : Close contact with someone with the Covid infection make sure higher risk of getting it. Wear a mask and practice social distancing 6 feet away.Most places recommend you be quarantine for 14 days. Symptoms typically start five days after exposure sometimes it takes 10 to 14 days to get sick rarely longer
