When someone has been in close, extended contact with a person who has tested positive for COVID-19, the CDC would recommend quarantining for 14 days.
But this month, they changed part of that guideline.
The new guidelines say that recent COVID-19 survivors are exempt from needing to quarantine, for up to three months, should they present no new symptoms.
"People who have tested positive for COVID-19 do not need to quarantine or get tested again for up to three months as long as they do not develop symptoms again. People who develop symptoms again within three months of their first bout of COVID-19 may need to be tested again if there is no other cause identified for their symptoms," the CDC wrote.
But doctors warn that this doesn’t mean you have immunity for three months.
