CDC says preliminary data shows the Omicron variant is up to three times more infectious than the Delta & cites modeling from U.K. showing 5th day after a positive test, "an estimated 31% of persons remain infectious." CDC guidance shortening isolation period to 5 days stands. — PolitiTweet.org

The updated guidance advising people to stay isolated until day 10 if they have a positive rapid test after five days in isolation appears to contradict Dr. Walensky’s claim to CNN last week that “we wouldn’t change our guidance based on the result of the rapid test.” — PolitiTweet.org

So the CDC isn't recommending taking a test on day five after testing positive and maintains you can leave isolation (but wear a mask and avoid restaurants/travel) for next five days. But if you happen to take a test on day five and you're positive, you should continue isolating. — PolitiTweet.org
