APPENDIX A - WHAT IS CORONAVIRUS? Coronaviruses are a wide family of viruses between humans and animals that can cause respiratory illnesses ranging from the cold to more serious illnesses. The virus that causes COVID-19 is mainly spread by respiratory droplets. When someone infected with COVID-19 coughs or sneezes, respiratory droplets that contain the virus are expelled and can be breathed in by someone nearby. Although the virus cannot enter the body through the skin, the respiratory droplets carrying the virus can get into your airways or mucous membranes of your eyes, nose, or mouth to infect you. The virus can also be spread if you touch a surface contaminated with virus and then touch your eyes, nose or mouth, although this is not the primary way the virus spreads. The most common symptoms are: • Fever • Tiredness • Sneezing • Dry cough • Restlessness • Headache • Difficulty breathing (more severe cases) This list is not all-inclusive. Some patients may experience pain, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and appear gradually. Some people become infected, but do not develop any symptoms and are not ill. In more severe cases, they can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure, and even death. For the purposes of COVID-19, the CDC has identified four levels of risk based on the closeness of each person to someone infected or the level of contact with possible sources of contagion depending on the type of activity. In addition, it provides elements to identify the vulnerable population due to conditions other than occupational risk. Level of Risk Very High Activity description Those with a high potential for exposure to high concentrations from known sources or with suspected contagion. Type of People Exposed Doctors, Nurses, Dentists, Laboratories, their patients and clients. High Those with a high potential for exposure to known sources or with suspected contagion. Doctors, Nurses, Paramedics, Medical Technicians, Forensic Doctors, Persons who work in morgue, Drivers and ambulance personnel, Hospital staff and/ or Patients. Moderate X Those that involve frequent and close contact of exposure to sources with the possibility of contagion. Persons with highly frequent contact with the general public, school-age people, coworkers, clients, and other individuals or groups. Low X Those that do not imply frequent contacts and close exposure to sources with the possibility of contagion. People who have minimal contact with the general public and other coworkers.

What do you need to know about COVID-19? • What is and how it spreads • How you can protect yourself and others against COVID-19 • Social distancing is key • If your child is sick, avoid spreading the virus • Know your risk and the risk of having complications • The more people a student or staff member interacts with, and the longer that interaction, the higher the risk of COVID-19 spread. The risk of its spread increases in school settings as follows: 1. Lowest Risk: Students and teachers engage in virtual-only classes, activities, and events. 2. More Risk: Small, in-person classes, activities, and events. Groups of students stay together and with the same teacher throughout/across school days and groups do not mix. Students remain at least 6 feet apart and do not share objects (e.g., blended virtual and in-person class structures, or staggered/rotated scheduling to accommodate smaller class sizes). 3. Highest Risk: Full sized, in-person classes, activities, and events. Students are not spaced apart, share classroom materials or supplies, and mix between classes and activities. 23
