Based on new research, the CDC guidance now states that people with mild to moderate COVID-19 cases can stop isolating after just 10 days and do not need to be tested before returning to work—they just need to be fever free for 24 hours.  They explain that symptoms—not testing—should be used to gauge how infectious an individual is, so that a person is "not kept unnecessarily isolated and excluded from work or other responsibilities." 


Has everyone figured out yet that they are making it up as they go along?

But they’re not requiring negative tests at the end.

But you'll still have to wear the highly effective bandana across your grill.

So basically, just like any other virus/cold/flu?

Gee, it's almost like this thing isn't near what it was made out to be five months ago.

Yes, but it will take at least until November until all the facts are known.

No one can give a definitive answer to any Covid related questions, because the supposed facts change daily.

I thought it was 10 days and no fever for 72 consecutive hours.

So this is kind of confusing. Let’s say you start showing symptoms on day 2 of transmission. You get a fever and loss of taste and smell and the fever lasts 3 days or so. Worst of it day 2. Are you good to go on day 7? Over 24 hours after the fever ends? Or is it 10 days?

Yeah, masks are not really effective.....everyone needs to wear a mask. Dr Fugazi was the first hint they were making it up as they went along and Trump has been the person expected to shoulder the blame because of incompetent bureaucrats like Dr Fugazi.

Wonder how this shite work with someone like my daughter- only tested because she was around someone who was positive, after learning she was positive said her sense of taste and smell was diminished and developed a nighttime cough and that is it.

Never has had fever.
