Quarantine reduced from 10 to seven days

There has been talk of shortening the quarantine in Poland for some time. Many countries have already decided to make such a move, mainly due to the prevailing variant of Omikron, the symptoms of which appear earlier than with previous variants of the coronavirus. Another important factor is the social and economic costs of large numbers of people living in their homes.

This was officially confirmed by Mateusz Morawiecki during the Friday press conference.

Prof. Fal: This is a rational decision

The shortening of the duration of the quarantine was assessed in an interview with Medonet by Prof. Andrzej Fal, head of the Department of Allergology, Lung Diseases and Internal Diseases at the hospital of the Ministry of Interior and Administration.

– Tá laghdú coraintín tugtha isteach cheana féin ag go leor tíortha. Más féidir linn labhairt faoi phointí maithe i gcomhthéacs an athraitheach Omikron, níl aon amhras ach go bhfuil láithreacht an phataigin, agus dá bhrí sin an ionfhabhtaíocht, cé go bhfuil sé níos airde, níos giorra ná i gcás na leaganacha Delta nó Alpha. Mar sin, tá an cinneadh coraintín agus leithlisiú a ghiorrú rud éigin réasúnach – says prof. Halyard.

– However, we must also bear in mind that Omikron has been in space since mid-November, because then it was detected in Africa. This means that the time of its observation at the moment is relatively short. We are learning this variant all the time – adds the president of the Polish Society of Public Health.

Length of the quarantine. How is it in other countries?

Many countries decided to quarantine some time ago. In the United States, where it is currently up to 800. cases per day, isolation and quarantine periods were reduced in December. However, this concerned employees of the health care system. Doctors and nurses who test positive for the coronavirus are isolated for seven instead of 10 days, in the absence of symptoms, isolation is reduced to five days. On the other hand, quarantine does not apply to employees who have completed the full vaccination course.
