Guidance updates recommendations on isolation duration and exposure precautions consistent with the CDC.

LeadingAge NY is urging DOH to issue updated guidance recognizing CDC updates from September.

For purposes of compliance with COVID-19 infection prevention measures such as routine staff testing requirements in nursing homes, quarantine of exposed residents in nursing homes and ACFs, and work exclusion of exposed staff in all settings, staff and residents will be considered "up-to-date" if they are up-to-date under the prior CDC vaccination guidance through Oct. 15^th. After Oct. 15^th, the new up-to-date definition, which relies on the bivalent booster, will be enforced.
