The new recommendations apply to COVID-19 and other viruses, like flu and RSV.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced Friday it would wind down much of its remaining guidance specifically targeted at COVID-19, including an official end to a pandemic-era plea for Americans to stay home for five days after testing positive.The agency cited improvements in the rates of hospitalizations and deaths inflicted by the virus this past season for the change in its recommendations.
It also acknowledged that mild cases are now often not detected by home tests until past the peak of infectiousness, given the risk of false negative results soon after an infection.'Even when testing occurs, COVID-19 is often not identified early in illness. The overall sensitivity of COVID-19 antigen tests is relatively low and even lower in individuals with only mild symptoms,' the CDC said in its report.
