The agency now advises staying home only if you have symptoms, such as fever. Otherwise, you can return to normal activities if, for at least 24 hours, your symptoms are improving overall and any fever has gone away without the use of fever-reducing medication.
Some experts have questioned the policy shift, since there is no new science strongly defining COVID's contagious period by an active fever. Others have supported the agency's goal of making COVID-19 guidelines easy to understand and follow, aligning them with recommendations for other seasonal viruses.
