Interim Infection Prevention and Control for Health Care during COVID-19

 


As of September 23, 2022 the CDC issued Interim recommendations for health care personnel during COVID-19

Portions of the recommendations suggest altering mask wearing and infection control guidelines based on Community Transmission. The prospect of changing recommendations base on transmission levels can be problematic resulting in confusion. The changes back to a more restrictive guidance are often delayed until after transmission rates are high. 

The recommendations suggest adding engineering controls which can reduce transmission.
