Mariposa County Public Health:
This post refers to case 32, which we shared yesterday evening. Our contact tracing team is working hard to reach any potential contacts of this case. Those who are determined to be a contact will be quarantined or isolated as needed. Please note, this employee worked at Castillo's on Saturday, July 11th between 11 am and 3 pm. If you were a customer during that period of time, you should quarantine immediately and remain quarantined from the time of exposure (or knowledge of exposure) for 14 days. This means staying in a separate place in the household, using a separate bathroom if possible, and avoiding all contact. You can learn more about how to safely quarantine, we recommend visiting: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/if-you-are-sick/quarantine.html
Note: Steve's Sportsmans Cafe posted the following on Facebook yesterday afternoon.
Attention: We found out this afternoon that one of our employees tested positive for Covid-19. We closed the restaurant immediately after being notified.
We have been in contact with the county health officials as to what we need to do. Those that were in contact with our employee have immediately self quarantined and will be tested.
As a precaution we want you to be aware that the employee worked Wednesday through Friday July 8-10th. The employee did not show any symptoms of sickness until Friday and was sent home. We were above and beyond state guidelines for sanitation and disinfecting protocols, but if you feel you were exposed please register to get tested here at www.lhi.care/covidtesting
We will be closed until further notice. We will be able to reopen after the entire restaurant has been deep cleaned. When we do open, we will most likely have limited hours for the next two weeks with limited staff that was not in contact with our employee.
