Important Information for Champaign County Residents

 

Contact Tracing Ending

As of August 15, 2022, the Champaign-Urbana Public Health District (CUPHD) will no longer contact, or provide food and housing resources to, individuals who test positive for COVID-19. If you test positive for COVID, please reach out to your primary care physician to discuss treatment options, especially if you are at risk of severe illness. You can also call the Carle COVID-19 hotline at (217) 902-6100. CUPHD will continue providing information and guidance about COVID-19 here on our website.

The CDC currently recommends isolation for a minimum of five days after the onset of symptoms or a positive test. To end isolation, those who were symptomatic should wait until their fever has subsided for at least 24 hours and other symptoms are improving—and those leaving isolation should wear a mask in public through day 10. For additional guidance and information on isolation and quarantine visit CDC Isolation and Precautions for People with COVID-19.
