The Town of Sheffield's Board of Health has implemented an at-home daily screening to see if residents and their families have symptoms of COVID-19. They invite you to take this survey for ALL members of your household as a precautionary measure.

1) If ALL the answers are NO, go about your normal day and remember to wear a mandatory face covering, practice social distancing guidelines and don't forget to wash your hands or use hand sanitizer on a frequent basis.

2) If ANY of the answers are YES, you are advised to stay home and consult with your doctor. This also applies to school children, faculty and staff if classes are not held virtually. If any signs are exhibited from this list, they will be sent home and need to be completely evaluated by their primary care physician before their impending return to the classroom.

Here is the survey in it's entirety:

TODAY or in the past 24 hours, have YOU OR any household member:

Had a temperature of 100.degrees Fahrenheit OR higher?
