Wow, this is not good contact tracing. Yikes...

February 27, 2020
Both American River College (ARC) and Cosumnes River College (CRC) have learned that one student from each college – both who work as medical professionals – were exposed off campus to an individual who has since tested positive for the coronavirus (COVID-19) and is being treated in Sacramento County. County health experts have indicated that there are no indications at this time that members of the campus communities are at risk of potential exposure to the virus.

The exposure to the two students happened last week while performing their professional duties. ******While both students did return to campus after the exposure, Sacramento County Public Health experts have directed both colleges to take no immediate action and proceed with regular class and work schedules at this time.*******

Out of an abundance of caution, these two students have been instructed by county health officials to self-quarantine for a period of 14 days. The students will be self-monitoring and will notify the county if any symptoms arise.

The colleges and district are in close contact with county health experts on this issue and are prepared to continue to follow their expert direction regarding appropriate next steps. More information will be forthcoming as this situation evolves.

If anyone has any questions about the coronavirus (COVID-19), then they should visit the Sacramento County Department of Health Services website for more information and effective preventive measures for the spread of respiratory viruses. Students, faculty, or staff who have any questions about impacts to the colleges should contact their campus Health Center.

I assume these are the two medical people that were mentioned in the local media last night as “isolate and monitor temp” from Davis
