The science says that most people with COVID are infectious for 10 days regardless of symptoms.
Yet the CDC guidelines say it’s fine to resume normal activities if you’re feeling better and don’t have a fever for 24 hrs.
Governments are to blame for normalizing mass infection.

1. When you may have a respiratory virus...‎ Stay home and away from others (including people you live with who are not sick) if you have respiratory virus symptoms that aren't better explained by another cause. These symptoms can include fever, chills, fatigue, cough, runny nose, and headache, among others.* You can go back to your normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, both are true: Your symptoms are getting better overall, and You have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication).

2. Infographic with chart of COVID infectiousness time Text: How Long Are You Contagious With COVID-19? Studies suggest: • Most people are infectious for ~10 days • ~80% of people test positive for 5 days after symptom onset • Only ~30% of people who test positive have a fever • Presence of symptoms is an unreliable indicator of infectiousness • Individuals can be infectious before the onset of symptoms • Asymptomatic cases represent at least 20 to 40% of all infections

  If you are angry about Olympic athletes competing while positive with COVID, just wait till you see the CDC's guidelines.
