[SchoolFinance] Is the COVID Paid Leave Law still applicable?

[Sue Lambert]

This is what I am reading.
The CDC recommends that people who test positive for COVID-19 base their
isolation period on their symptoms. Individuals can now end their isolation
if they’ve been fever-free for 24 hours and other symptoms are improving.
Preventative strategies like wearing a mask are recommended for five days
after ending isolation.

So no mandatory 5 days of isolation but it appears they still need to
isolate for example with a fever(& then they recommend a mask).
We'll have to review the wording of the law to see if it stil applies.
