The CDC published 6 'decision trees' aimed at helping businesses, communities, schools, camps, daycares & mass transit decide if it's safe to re-open. The decision trees are much shorter than a much-anticipated document that has been delayed at least once.

The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published six"decision trees" Thursday aimed at helping businesses, communities, schools, camps, daycares and mass transit decide whether it's safe to re-open.

The one-page decision trees are much shorter than a much-anticipated, lengthy and detailed document that has been delayed at least once.The six documents posted on the CDC's website Thursday provide step-by-step guidance advising employers, for instance, to encourage social distancing, handwashing and intensified cleaning.They do not provide any detailed advice on when it would be safe for schools or business to open -- only questions to ask before making any decisions.

For camps, the advice includes screening."If feasible, implement enhanced screening for children and employees who have recently been present in areas of high transmission, including temperature checks and symptom monitoring," the decision tree reads."Are you ready to protect employees at higher risk for severe illness?" the mass transit tree asks.

AP Exclusive: CDC docs stress plans for more virus flareupsCDC documents on how to safely reopen businesses and institutions during the pandemic included more restrictive measures, and plans for flare-ups, than the one released by the White House.
