Knowing what to do if you test positive for COVID-19 will help you and your family get through it with less stress.
Department of Health guidelines require you to quarantine at home for 7 days.
People you live with or have spent more than four hours with at home must also quarantine for 7 days.
Tell friends and family you have spent time with recently, your employer and the school or day care centre your child attends that you have tested positive for COVID-19.
Explain you have spent time together and they should get tested.
