NYS Quarantine Guidelines (as of 5/31/2022)

New York State Approach to COVID-19 Quarantine

Who does Not Have to Quarantine After Close Contact with Someone With COVID-19?

• Anyone who is up to date on their COVID-19 vaccinations:

  • Anyone ages 5 or older and who has received all CDC recommended COVID-19 vaccine doses, including booster(s) if eligible and additional primary shots for some immunocompromised people.

• Anyone who has had confirmed COVID-19 within the last 90 days (tested positive using a viral test, e.g. antigen or PCR).

What To Do if Not Subject to Quarantine:

• Wear a well-fitting mask around others for 10 days from the date of last close contact with someone with COVID-19 (the date of last close contact is considered day 0).

• Get tested at least 5 days after the date of last close contact with someone with COVID19. If test is positive or COVID-19 symptoms develop, isolate from other people and follow recommendations in the Isolation section of this guidance document.

• Anyone who had COVID-19 within the last 90 days and has since recovered and remained symptom free, does not need to get tested after close contact with someone with COVID-19.

• If an exposed person who does not have to quarantine cannot separate from one or more individuals with COVID-19 who are in isolation (e.g., because the exposed person lives in the same household with a sick individual who needs care), then the exposed person will have ongoing exposure until the infected person is no longer contagious.

• If an exposed person who does not have to quarantine travels during the 10 days after last close contact, the person should wear a well-fitting mask when around others for the entire duration of travel during the 10 days.

  • Anyone unable to wear a mask should not travel during the 10 days.

  • Travelers should get tested at least 5 days after the date of the last close contact, receive a negative test result before travel or further travel, and be symptom free.

Who Must Quarantine After Close Contact With Someone With COVID-19?

• Anyone who is not up to date on their COVID-19 vaccinations.

  • Anyone who is not vaccinated or has not completed a primary vaccine series.

  • Anyone ages 5 or older who has completed the primary series of recommended vaccine, and is eligible for a CDC recommended booster shot (1st or 2nd), but has not received it.
