Our Leslie Eastman is correct once again!

Our masters at the CDC finally said what we always knew: You can treat COVID-19 like any other respiratory virus.

Instead of setting a strict 5-day isolation period, the new guidance says people can return to normal activities so long as their symptoms improve, and continue improving over 24 hours and they no longer have a fever, without having used fever-reducing medications. In its announcement, the agency said the decision reflects the “progress we have made in protecting against severe illness from COVID-19” — and that a unified approach makes recommendations easier to follow and more likely to be adopted by Americans.

Also, who wants to be around other people when you’re sick!? I had the flu last week. No one else got sick. I stayed away from everyone, washed my hands, and disinfected. I didn’t emerge until the fever broke because you’re not contagious without the fever.
