It is almost zero chance that you can transmit the virus after 10 days. The covid test can be positive but it does not mean you harbor a live virus. If it is necessary to see your parents, just go ahead. Take care.

It may be advisable to wait until you have no cough, fever or nasal symptoms. There is a possibility that there are viable viral particles in secretions. Your parents should have a booster vaccination. West a mask and wash hands, if you do visit.
