HOT!
Corvallis Duplicate Bridge Club will reopen Tuesday, December 7th. (Tuesday night games are still suspended until further notice.)
Below are some important links concerning Covid-19 Masking Requirements, Isolation and Exposure, and local Covid Testing sites. Note the self-testing kit listed at the end. I bought it and took it, and have tested negative for the first swab (it requires two swabs).
Note exceptions to the 14-day quarantine (excerpts from both OHA and CDC):
OHA Covid-19 Isolation and Quarantine
https://sharedsystems.dhsoha.state.or.us/DHSForms/Served/le2351t.pdf
" “Substantial exposure” means having been: Within six (6) feet of a confirmed COVID-19 case or presumptive COVID-19 case
for 15 minutes or more within one day." (also defined as 'Close Contact')
Close contacts are required to:
• Quarantine by staying home and at least six (6) feet away from everyone, including household members.
• a shortened quarantine period that balances the risk of disease spread with the impacts on individuals from a longer quarantine, individuals may end quarantine 10 days after their last exposure to a person with COVID-19 if they remain asymptomatic.
CDC Covid-19 Isolation and Quarantine
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/your-health/quarantine-isolation.html
"Anyone who has had close contact with someone with COVID-19 should quarantine for 14 days after their last exposure to that person, except if they meet the following conditions:
Someone who has been fully vaccinated and shows no symptoms of COVID-19 does not need to quarantine. However, fully vaccinated close contacts should:
- Wear a mask indoors in public for 14 days following exposure or until a negative test result.
- Get tested 5-7 days after close contact with someone with suspected or confirmed COVID-19.
- Get tested and isolate immediately if experiencing COVID-19 symptoms."

Self-Testing
There are kits available (I got mine from Rice's Pharmacy) for about $30. Easy to do (but please read the instructions carefully first). Results within 15 minutes. My first swab came back negative, and I need to do one more with 24-36 hours of the first one.
