Governor Says Fully Vaccinated No Longer Required to Quarantine When Exposed

Coming into contact after vaccination does not require quarantine measures

Fully vaccinated Ohioans will no longer have to quarantine if exposed to someone with COVID-19, Governor Mike DeWine announced Tuesday.

The updated health order will allow people who are vaccinated to continue daily activities without having to put plans on hold due to a possible exposure to the virus.

"By changing our health order, students 16 and 17 years old who are vaccinated will be able to participate in sports and other activities, even when they have been exposed to someone with COVID," DeWine said.
