COVID risks: Palliated tetralogy of Fallot w good ventricular function & competent pulmonic valve is considered low risk for adults per https://www.ucsfhealth.org/education/faq-coronavirus-and-adults-with-congenital-heart-disease. Digeorge Syndrome associated w abnormal immune function is high risk. REF: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ew3Y0V5jDt_9HO-heaxJC3GY10P5dQMyBpA5nLHx4Qw/edit

Social distancing: She has medical conditions which place her at higher risk for complications. If there is an alternate caregiver for two weeks, or until you are without fever for three days, whichever is longer in duration, that may be advisable. Wash hands, avoid contact and use separate bath and bedrooms. Watch for signs of fever, cough, chills, vomiting, and if these occur, please see your pediatrician.
