[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do NOT allow her in your home until she tests negative with a PCR test or until your mother leaves, whichever comes first. I don't know what you can afford, but I would offer her some compensation since legally she is cleared to work. I know very well that some patients continue to test positive for weeks or months after feeling better, and that at some point they're not contagious at all. The danger is to your mother, who due to her age is at high risk of hospitalization from the Delta variant. The positive nanny cannot work with your mother in the house, and that's flat, period. One of my medically fragile MIL's caregivers tested positive for more than a month after getting sick from Covid. She was not allowed to return until she showed us her negative PCR test result. My BIL continued to pay her. [/quote] This is bad information. OP- CDC guidance calls for a 10 day quarantine and does not require a negative test because most people continue to test positive for weeks to months. This woman who has been vaxxed and now has Covid is probably the softest person you can find to be with your kids. If you’re anxious, speak to your dr for reassurance. [/quote]
