Our workplace has stated you are allowed 10 days max off work, even if symptomatic, before being required to return to work. If you are hospitalized you get 20.

We are tested at least monthly at work. Just last week if you tested positive you needed 2 negative tests to return. That is no longer required. You also are placed on a list to not be retested for upwards of 90 days.

Did I mention I work for my state government? Yeah. They're trying to kill us all to look good.
