(ANSA) – ROME, MARCH 30 – People who tested positive in the diagnostic test (molecular or antigenic) for SARS-CoV-2, we read in the circular signed by the Director of Prevention of the ministry Gianni Rezza, “are subjected to the measure of isolation” .
The same indications contained in Circular no. 60136 of 12/30/2021 (‘Update on quarantine and isolation measures following the global spread of the new VOC SARS-CoV-2 Omicron B.1.1.529 variant’). The isolation, that is, remains for a period of 7 days (and not more than 10) for subjects vaccinated with a booster or with a vaccination course completed by less than 120 days. At the end of the isolation, a molecular or antigen test must be performed.

If during the period of self-monitoring, the circular specifies, “symptoms suggestive of possible infection with Sars-Cov-2 occur, it is recommended to immediately perform an antigenic or molecular test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. a negative result must be repeated, if symptoms are still present, on the fifth day following the date of the last contact “.
