Recommendations for isolation/ quarantine with those who tested positive with Covid are now reduced from 10 to 5 days. The science reveals that viral infection of transmission occurrence starts early in the course of the illness (generally 1-2 days prior to symptoms and 2-3 days after the symptoms ).
Unvaccinated individuals or those without receiving a second dose after 6 months or 2 months after the J&J vaccine or not yet boosted, the CDC recommends quarantine for 5 days. Those with the booster need not quarantine following exposure. The CDC recommends however that a Covid test should be performed thereafter. With the occurrence of symptoms, immediately quarantine followed by a Covid test. Retesting should be done until a negative result is achieved.
