If you are..
Asymptomatic: Isolate for 10 days after the first positive test.
Symptomatic: Isolate for at least 10 days after symptom onset or until you have been fever free for at least 24 hours, whichever is longer.
Severely ill: Isolate for at least 10 days and up to 20 days after symptom onset.
Once you’ve tested positive for the virus, you do not need to be tested again for 90 days.
Next Steps
People who are currently positive for COVID-19 should wait for 90 days to get vaccine. COVID-19 patients should wait until they have cleared the virus before getting the vaccine.
People who have been treated with monoclonal antibodies or convalescent plasma. Those people should wait 90 days from the end of their treatment to get the vaccine shot
