\"\"Due to the ongoing surge of COVID-19 cases in the LENOWISCO Health District,\u00a0the Health Department will no longer provide individuals with clearance letters to return to work or school following COVID-19 infection or exposure<\/strong>. The agency will also stop providing written communications that exclude people from work or school due to illness or exposure. Additionally, individuals should be mindful about seeking clearance letters from health care providers, as they, too, are experiencing increased demand for clinical services given the current surge in COVID-19 cases.\u00a0 Employers and school administrators are asked to apply isolation and quarantine guidelines from the CDC in determining when employees or students are able to return instead of requiring a clearance letter<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
