What is the process of quarantine from the corona virus?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Quarantines last for the duration of the upper limit of the incubation period of the virus, which is 14 days in this case. However, isolation lasts until the patients is completely free from the virus. Hence, it is recommended to take a test and if the result is negative then only come out of the quarantine process.
Dr. Hema Suggests...
Take a PHENYTOIN LEVEL - DILANTIN Test or Take a Total Protein (Protein, Albumin, Globulin, A/G) Test

View allI went to have a COVID test 5 days ago because I had certain symptoms. That day, I was put in a hospital ward with others who had similar symptoms and were admitted after the test. The next day, my test results came back negative. However, I did spend 1 day in that ward. On the discharge slip, doctors advised me to stay in isolation for 10 days, even though my test report was negative. I want to ask if there is a significant chance of getting COVID by staying in a COVID dedicated ward for one day? I wore a surgical mask the whole time. After coming back, I changed my clothes but did not bathe as I was having a fever. Today is the 5th day, and I am a little scared because I read that most patients develop COVID symptoms between days 5 and 10.

I am traveling to Nagpur on 9th September, and my second vaccine dose is scheduled for 28th August. Since Maharashtra requires a negative RTPCR test for entry, I plan to take the RTPCR test on 7th September. Will my RTPCR report show positive because I took the vaccine dose on 28th August, or will it be negative?
