How long after acquiring the virus must you self-isolate to prevent others from contracting the virus?”
The answer, as previously reported by Ariana Cha in “How long should you isolate if you test positive for the coronavirus? At least 10 days after symptom onset.”
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise people who tested positive for the novel coronavirus toisolate for 10 days after symptoms begin and 24 hours after their fever has broken.
For those who have a positive test but are asymptomatic, the CDC recommends isolating for 10 days from the testing date.
Multiple studies have suggested most people are infectious for only a short period, usually four to nine days.
