[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]so what is the story with kids who are currently positive? They must stay home until they test negative no matter how long that takes?? [/quote] They say you have to take the test regardless of recent diagnoses. Obnoxious. DCPS shouldn't be imposing extra quarantine on kids who tested positive during the winter break. From the CDC: "Patients who have recovered from COVID-19 can continue to have detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA in upper respiratory specimens for up to 3 months after illness onset .... These findings strengthen the justification for relying on a symptom-based rather than test-based strategy for ending isolation of most patients." : https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/duration-isolation.html But I haven't found information about how long antigen tests come back positive. All I found is that they "may be less likely to give a positive result" - hardly comforting. [/quote]
