The Press Stories
The CDC recently made changes to its COVID-19 isolation recommendations, now suggesting that individuals can resume daily activities if they have been fever-free for 24 hours and their symptoms are improving. This new guideline emphasizes that testing is now seen as an additional prevention strategy, rather than a determinant of when someone can leave isolation.
However, some experts are warning that these new guidelines may lead to an increased transmission of COVID-19. Despite a decrease in hospitalizations and deaths, COVID transmission rates are still high. Experts caution that the CDC messaging is confusing and misleading, as COVID remains highly contagious even if symptoms improve.
Furthermore, the risk of transmission is still present even without a fever or symptoms. Experts urge the public to proceed with caution and continue taking necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the virus.
As the situation continues to evolve, it is important for individuals to stay informed and follow the guidance of health authorities. Stay tuned for more updates on Press Stories as we continue to bring you the latest news on COVID-19 and its impact on our communities.
