[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unvaccinated are supposed to stay home for 7 days after returning REGARDLESS of a negative test.  The minimum is 7 days, not 3.  If you get tested 3-5 after returning, you can shorten the quarantine from 10 to 7 days.  But 7 days is the minimum.[/quote]

That's not what it says.[/quote]

DP. That’s exactly what it says in the last paragraph:

“After you travel: 
Get tested with a viral test 3-5 days after travel AND stay home and self-quarantine for a full 7 days after travel. 
Even if you test negative, stay home and self-quarantine for the full 7 days.”[/quote]

That's for INTERNATOINAL travel, not domestic.

"Per  DC Health’s Guidance  for  Travel,  unvaccinated  or  partially  vaccinated  individuals  who  have  traveled [b]domestically[/b]  to  any  place  other  than  Maryland  or  Virginia  must  either  (1)  not attend  school  for  10  days after returning,  or  (2)  not  attend  school  until  tested  for  COVID-19  three  to  five  days  after returning  AND receive  a  negative  COVID-19  viral  test.

Per  DC Health’s Guidance  for  Travel,  unvaccinated  or  partially  vaccinated  individuals  who  have  traveled [b]internationally  [/b]must  either  (1)  not  attend  school  for  10  days  after  returning,  or  (2)  not  attend  school  for seven  days  after  returning,  get  tested  for COVID-19 three  to  five  days  after returning,  AND  receive  a negative  COVID-19 viral  test.  Even  if  the  test  is  negative,  the  individual  must  still  not  attend  school  for seven  days."   [/quote]

Which is the other senseless part. Why are restrictions for international travel tighter? I feel much more comfortable traveling to a country that has taken this virus seriously than I would visiting these rednecks in Florida.[/quote]

Florida has hogher vax rates than most countries and has better policies, as bad as they are, than many.  [/quote]
