Delaware and West Virginia Added, California Subtracted From Quarantine List
On Monday, DC Health published its up-to-date list of states requiring a quarantine for individuals (1) visiting from the states or (2) District residents who had traveled to the states. The new list, which is in place for two weeks, added Delaware, West Virginia, Alaska, Arizona, and Wyoming. This means anyone visiting or visiting from those states must quarantine for 2 weeks when coming into the District. Alaska and Arizona had been removed from the list two weeks ago, and Delaware had been added then removed from the list prior to Labor Day.
For those looking for a vacation, California, Hawaii, and Ohio were removed from the quarantine list.
DC Health defines “high-risk areas” as locations where the seven (7)-day moving average daily new COVID-19 case rate is ten (10) or more per one hundred thousand (100,000) persons. Travel to and from Maryland and Virginia is exempted.
An updated list will be published Monday, October 5.
