Fauci says reducing the recommended Covid isolation period for the fully vaccinated is being considered
CNN
Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday that the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is considering loosening its isolation length recommendations for fully vaccinated individuals -- particularly health care workers -- who test positive for Covid-19 but don't have symptoms.
Fauci's comments were the strongest yet from the nation's top infectious disease expert in favor of revisiting the CDC's isolation guidance, which recommends 10 full days for people who have the virus, even if asymptomatic.
Fauci told CNN that "no decisions" have been made yet, but that a discussion is underway about allowing infected health care workers who are asymptomatic to return to work sooner, as new Covid cases and hospitalizations rise and are expected to put a strain on the health care system.
