The CDC and NJDOH have relaxed the guidance for a minimum of 5-days of isolation after a positive COVID test. Instead, those with respiratory symptoms should adhere to common sense guidelines for all respiratory viruses, including staying up-to-date with vaccination, avoiding others when sick with fever and/or significant respiratory symptoms, and practicing good hygiene (frequent hand washing and covering coughs and sneezes).
The CDC has created universal recommendations for respiratory viruses, including the SARS-CoV-2 virus (“COVID”), Influenza virus (“Flu”), and other respiratory viruses. UHS has developed some specific information for Princeton, which is based on the CDC guidance for preventing spread of respiratory viruses.
