sqwakvfr Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 This is why Quarantine will not end anytime soon. Everyday a few in Quarantine test positive. In the near future the only way to determine if Quarantine can end is to put a vaccinated group in an controlled hotel and conduct a RT-PCR test after 5 or 6 days and see if anyone tests positive. If the vaccinated control group does not have any positives then the government can consider either eliminate or reduce quarantine time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A single bed hospital room. I think the insurance gets charged for this. At least that's what happened to a colleague. He was asymptomatic. Maybe there is a different protocol for these international events (like the badminton tourney). Putting on the Olympics will be a much, much larger and more challenging endeavor.
