MBUSD is required to maintain records of positive COVID-19 cases and to report clusters of three (3) or more cases to LACDPH.
Anyone who has tested positive is instructed to report such cases to their school office, site administrator or supervisor.
Current COVID-19 guidance (required for students and employees):
-
- Isolate immediately
- Isolation may end if:
- Fever-free without medication for 24 hours
- No symptoms or symptoms are improved
(Testing is not required to leave isolation, but is strongly recommended. People who test positive but are asymptomatic do not need to isolate.)
-
- Mask using a highly protective mask through day ten (10) when around others except when eating or drinking, unless the individual has two sequential negative test results from tests taken at least 24 hours apart (required for students and staff).
