Arizona’s health department issued an emergency measure Monday requiring schools, child care centers and shelters to report coronavirus outbreaks to local health departments.
The measure applies to public schools, charter schools and private schools with students from kindergarten through 12th grade.
An outbreak is defined as two or more laboratory-confirmed cases of COVID-19 within a 14-day period among individuals who are epidemiologically linked, do not share a household and are not close contacts of each other in another setting.
