Q- When can I be around others if I had or likely had COVID with symptoms?

You can be with others and return to work after 

  • At least 10 days since symptoms first appeared and 
  • At least 24 hours with no fever without fever-reducing medication and 
  • Symptoms have improved

Take your physician's advice and availability of testing, you might get tested to see if you still have COVID-19. If you are tested, you can be around others when you have no fever, respiratory symptoms have improved, and you receive two negative test results in a row, at least 24 hours apart.
