Hello I’m new to this site so this may not be the best place to post, but have a very basic question I can’t seem to find an answer to, I first tested positive Nov 4, took full course of Paxlovid and did a 7 day stay home. Tested negative. 3 days later tested positive again and have light symptoms again. Was advised by my health insurance nurse line that I was fine to be out and about. 5 days still have some symptoms, tested positive again. Can’t seem to get an answer regarding am I possibly spreading COVID when I’m testing positive?

Hi @justhike, If you test positive for COVID-19, it is recommended that you stay home for at least 5 days and isolate from others in your home.

Here are full details from the CDC including what to do if you test positive and when you have symptoms.
