COVID-19 Contact Tracing Playbook

This 67-page “playbook” is a living document that details comprehensive procedures for contact tracing to track and halt the spread of COVID-19. It covers methods for the four key steps for contact tracing of COVID-19:

1. Identify and notify cases of their confirmed or probable COVID-19 status.
   Provide instructions on isolation and treatment.
2. Interview cases and help them identify the people they were in contact with
   during their infectious period.
3. Locate and notify contacts of their potential exposure, interview them to see
   if they have symptoms, offer testing if they do (and if they don’t), and
   arrange for care if they are ill. Provide instructions on quarantine.
4. Monitor contacts and report daily on each person’s symptoms and
   temperature for 14 days after the person’s last contact with the patient while
   they were infectious.
