After 9 days, both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients are no longer infectious.
According to the scientists at the University of St. Andrews, throughout the 8,000 patients, they had examined, they couldn’t find ‘live virus’ after day 9 of infection. While the virus can still be detected in patients even after several weeks or even months after infection through respiratory or stool samples, it’s important to mention that 9 days after the first symptom arose, the virus is no longer infectious.
The CDC’s guidelines are in line with the researchers’ findings, suggesting that those who tested positive for the novel coronavirus need to self-isolate for ten days. According to Cevik, COVID-19 testing might not be needed after this 10-day period, since studies have proven the virus is no longer infectious and the patient can transmit the virus anymore.

This is all about money. Companies don’t want to pay employees for 14 days of quarantine. I don’t blame them, however just shortening the time is not the answer. This will cause a larger spread of the virus, making things harder on our health care system. The Federal Government needs to get their act together and think of ways to help SMALL business and employees. Otherwise we’re going to have complete mayhem going into the new year.
The entire subject is for money. Dr. Rashid Buttar, in charge of making COVID-19 in China three years ago, reported it was either sold or stolen for pharmaceutical profits. It will work! The more people get sick, the more money they make.
IT IS MY BELIEF THAT ALL OF THE NUMBERS ARE INFLATED. DEMOCRATS AND THE NEWS OUTLETS CREATED THIS GREAT FEAR AN CAPTIALIZED ON IT. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS TRYING TO GAIN FULL CONTROL OF OUR LIVES. THE PROCESS IS TO WIN THE HEARTS AN MINDS OF THE POPULUS LIKE WE TRIED TO DO IN THE VIETNAM AN WE KNOW HOW THAT TURNED OUT. AMERICA WE NEED TO FIGHT AS HARD AS WE CAN TO STOP THE GOVERNMENT FROM STRIPPING AWAY OUR CIVIL RIGHTS OR WE WILL SURELY LOSE THEM, MAKING IT SO MUCH HARDER TO REGAIN THEM. IF YOU THINK DEPENDING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO CARE FOR US, ASK THE AMERICAN INDIAN HOW WELL THE GOVERNMENT HAS TAKEN CARE OF THEM OR OUR VETRANS.
500,000 dead in the u.s. alone, are you gonna call that fake news? do you think that civil rights includes the right to not wear a mask and infect other people? do you wear a seat belt? the republican party has a long history of attempts at voter suppression some successful, which is really how to take away our civil rights and turn us into a fascist dictatorship, and you want to blame Democrats? As a veteran I bet you are not happy with the way the VA has handled the pandemic, but that was under the last administration which didnt give a damn about the folks on the ground, just about helping their rich friends.
The statistics have been altered to include persons who actually died with a comorbidity as a COVID death. Hospitals are given a financial incentive to reclassify cause of death. Check out the CDC change of how how deaths are reported.
