Whether the quarantine can be lifted after 14 days of isolation needs to be determined on a case-by-case basis.
1. Confirmation of not being infected with Neocoronavirus: Centralized isolation of persons, if they are close contacts. During the period of centralized isolation, if the nucleic acid test is negative several times, and there is no clinical symptom of infection with Neocoronavirus, and no positive nucleic acid test is found in the isolation site, the isolation can be lifted.
After being released from quarantine and returning home, the closely contacted person needs to be isolated at home for another 14 days. The next closest contacts need to be home health tested for 7 days.
2. Persons with clinical symptoms: Centralized isolation of persons who are confirmed patients, such as mildly ill patients. Although the quarantine treatment is 14 days and the nucleic acid test is negative, the infected person still has clinical symptoms, so he/she needs to continue the quarantine treatment and wait for all the clinical symptoms to disappear before the quarantine can be lifted. After returning home, the patient will be isolated at home for another 14 days.
During the outbreak, it is important to pay attention to personal protection, and to report any suspected history of close contact, abnormal test results or suspicious symptoms and seek medical examination.
