The CDC’s new guidance says people can return to normal activities, including work, 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. After that, it’s fine to resume regular activities — but they recommend that people take additional precautions for the next five days to lower the risk of spreading the virus. This includes improving ventilation, masking and limiting close contact with others.

• If someone’s symptoms return after they resume regular activities, the CDC says they should start the precautions over.

• The new CDC recommendations are in line with its advice for other kinds of respiratory infections, including influenza and RSV.
