It is important to tell public health workers who your close contacts are, as they may have been exposed to the virus and are at risk of infection. To protect their health and prevent further transmission of COVID-19, public health workers will arrange PCR testing, quarantine and monitor their health.

You could pass on the virus that causes COVID-19 to people around you from 2 days prior to symptom onset (or testing positive) to the day of your isolation (see Figure).
 

Please identify who, when, and where you have been in close contact with from 2 days before your symptom onset (or testing positive) to the date of being isolated. Close contacts are defined as individuals who had face-to-face contact with you for more than 15 minutes over a 24-hour period while either of you did not wear a mask, or those whom you live, dine, or interact with, including but not limited to:
A. People you may have contacted with

How to notify my close contacts
Please get in touch with your close contacts while either of you did not wear a mask. Ask your close contacts to stay at home. Your close contacts may contact the health authority directly or wait for the health authority to make the contact. In the meantime, please wear masks, practice good hand hygiene, avoid contacting or eating with others, and monitor for symptoms which might be caused by COVID-19. If your contacts develop fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, diarrhea, tiredness, loss of smell or taste, or difficulty in breathing, please use a rapid antigen test or contact the local health bureau. Alternatively, your contacts may seek assistance by dialing 1999 or 1922.
