For the first time since 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its COVID isolation guidance. Specifically, it has shifted the recommendation that someone who tests positive for COVID isolate for five days to a timeline based on the progression of the persons symptoms.
Standard precautions make use of common sense practices to prevent the spread of infection in health Transmission-based precautions are used when patients already have confirmed or suspected infections.
HCP should follow all recommended infection prevention and control practices, including wearing well-fitting source control, monitoring themselves for fever or symptoms consistent with COVID-19, and not reporting to work when ill or if testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
You should isolate for at least 5 days counting from the day you began feeling sick (Day 0 is the day you began feeling sick; Day 1 is the next day). If you have no symptoms, then isolate for 5 full days after the day you tested positive (Day 0 is the day you took your positive test; Day 1 is the day after).
Take Precautions Right Away Start wearing a high-quality mask or respirator (such as N95) as soon as you find out you were exposed to someone with COVID-19. You should wear a mask any time you are around others either inside your home or around other people in public.

After a positive test result, you may continue to test positive for some time. Some tests, especially NAAT tests, may continue to show a positive result for up to 90 days. Reinfections can occur within 90 days, which can make it hard to know if a positive test indicates a new infection.
Only leave isolation after 5 days if you have no symptoms or your symptoms are improving, including at least 24 hours without a fever. Continue to wear a mask around others until at least day 11 and avoid others who may get severely ill from COVID.
