The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated their guidance for those who test positive for COVID-19.
The CDC says isolation for five days is no longer necessary and that people can return to regular activities if their symptoms are mild and improving and it’s been a day since they’ve had a fever.
COVID-19 has dropped from being the nation’s third leading cause of death to 10th last year.
