What to Do If You’re Sick

Anyone with symptoms of a respiratory virus—including COVID-19—should stay home and avoid contact with others. Resume normal activities after you’ve been fever-free for at least 24 hours (without fever-reducing medication) and as overall symptoms improve.

• Employees should follow their manager’s guidance based on their specific work location when returning to work, and use paid time off or sick leave as appropriate to record their absences. Reference URMC-specific COVID-19 resources.
• Students should contact University Health Service (UHS) with questions. UHS may also have COVID-19 tests available. Learn more and review student guidance.
