    Uploaded by

    Bláck Ghøst
    Quarantine refers to separating individuals who were exposed to COVID-19 but aren't experiencing symptoms, while isolation refers to separating sick individuals or those who have tested positive for COVID-19. Quarantine keeps possibly exposed individuals away from others for 14 days to see if they develop symptoms, while isolation keeps sick or COVID-19 positive individuals isolated from others, even within their own home, for at least 10 days after symptoms first appeared or after receiving a positive test if asymptomatic. Fully vaccinated individuals may not need to quarantine after exposure unless experiencing symptoms but should still get tested 5-7 days after exposure and wear a mask indoors in public for 14 days.
