[Foothill Cycle Club: 1640] Recommended Club Covid-19 Practice


Recommended Club Covid-19 Practice


As you all may be aware, the pandemic is not over. You may have noticed that you have had reports of many friends and relatives that have been exposed and contracted COVID-19. Fortunately many of the reported cases are not sending people to the ICUs.


We should not be taking the recent increases lighty since some of our members may be in the high risk factors category or live with someone who has high risk factors.


Like adults, children with obesity, diabetes, asthma or chronic lung disease, sickle cell disease, or who are immunocompromised can also be at increased risk for getting very sick from COVID-19.


Recommendations


If you have any of the following symptoms, please skip a club ride until the symptoms disappear.


People with these symptoms may have COVID-19:

  • Fever or chills

  • Cough

  • Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing

  • Fatigue

  • Muscle or body aches

  • Headache

  • New loss of taste or smell

  • Sore throat

  • Congestion or runny nose

  • Nausea or vomiting

  • Diarrhea


If after a ride, you feel any symptoms, please take a at home test to see if you are positive, You can get a supply of tests here: https://www.covid.gov/tests


If positive, notify the club (brian@coxintl.com) or the ride leader of any rides that you have participated in the past 3 days or so. Please refrain from club rides until you test negative and your symptoms have disappeared.


The incubation time can be up to several days (link). So during that time, it would be wise to monitor who you are in contact with and possibly wear a mask while in public spaces.


As you know, bicycling is considered to be very safe since we are outdoors and typically separated by several feet. But it would be wise to continue to eat at outdoor spaces at break stops.
