If youre tested positive and are showing symptoms, is it acceptable for you to go out to do errands while masking up? Or should you be forced to stay at home for 5 days?

Is it even 5 days now? Ive had people come back to work in 2 days from the test because we go by when they displayed symptoms and when they stop.

I would just stay home. But the only errand I run on a regular basis is grocery store once a week and I always have plenty on hand that besides some fresh items I can literally go months without truly needing to go to the store. Skipping one week would be no problem and I do it often just out of pure laziness.

If it's not anything essential that you need to go out for then it's best to stay home just out of simple consideration for the other people in your community.

Mitigation factors are exactly that. Not an impenetrable force field. It's just risk reduction.

Stay at home unless it's an absolutely positively 100% unavoidable emergency that requires you to leave the house. And even if that absolutely positively 100% unavoidable emergency that requires you to leave the house somehow happens, wear your mask and stay far enough away from other people.

If one tests positive the CDC recommends a 5 day quarantine at least.

No, not okay. Masks help reduce how much you spread it, but your chance of spreading it to other people is still greater than 0.

If there are things you must buy now, either buy them online and have them delivered, or have family/friends buy something for you and leave it at your front door.

Friends,

Can you define "GOING OUT" because I can do alot of things going out, without really being pressed next to people. drive up food, bank atm, stuff delivered to my car, curb side delivery.

but I assume its best to stay home.. for you and for them. there are lots of things going around, just
because you have one does not mean you can not get a second. in fact,, it might make it EASIER to get a second problem.

People had years to get their vaccines. If they still didnt get them, thats their problem.

Agreed. Need to get inspection for my car so I dont get a ticket driving with expired tags after Halloween.

It probably doesn't matter much unless you're gonna be bottled up in elevators. The amount of people that have it and/or don't know or care seems to be pretty high.

But I like aby excuse to not do anything

Look up your state law. There's a decent amount of states that have it so you can't be pulled over for an expired stick for a few months so there's no real rush unless you get pulled over alot

You're a fucking asshole if you go out in public while you're positive with covid. Also a fever means you're contagious which makes you even more of an asshole if you willingly go out and expose people.

At this point, no reason to treat it differently to any other illness, especially given that most people are vaccinated and the vast majority of those who are not have had plenty of opportunity to change that. If you wouldn't go out with flu, don't go out with covid. If you would, go for it.

That's what's different between 2020 and now. We no longer need to be minimizing number of cases as aggressively as possible.

My 16 month old has had at least two shots of covid vaccines already.

Im in this boat; just treating COVID like any other illness. Going to try to stay inside, but if I have to go (like car inspection), going to mask up and just stay away from people in the waiting room // wait outside.

Yeah this. It's not going away. At this point, just do what people should do (TC included) when they're sick -- if they're sick, don't go out.

That's it.

Well personally if I'm sick (but not so sick that I can't do anything), I'll avoid non-essential trips and especially avoid crowded places, and I'll wear a mask if it's a respiratory illness like covid, but I don't outright lock myself in the house and avoid even important trips. Car inspection would be an example of something I'd still go to if I was booked in already.
