A member asked:
After a positive covid test and a 5 day waiting period if you still test positive and have lingering symptoms do you need to start another 5 - 7 days of isolation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
After 10 days you are no longer considered a host even you are still symptomatic at that time. In most cases, you do not need isolation 7 days after you had the first symptom of infection.

I tested positive for Covid last week and today is the last day of my isolation period. However, Ive had an extremely bad headache since yesterday. Sharp stabbing pain on the left side of my head near my temple. Takes my breath away when it happens. Neither Advil nor Tylenol have seemed to work for it. What should I do? Headache?
