Insight: Only people who are at 10 days from symptom onset AND have sputum RNA less than 100,000/mL can be sent into the wild. This shows many people still have 5 LOG10 RNA copies through about 2 weeks and some with ‘more severe mild’ disease shed closer to 3 weeks. Some hospital systems are NOT testing mild suspected cases and telling people to quarantine for 7-10 day. This paper shows the policy is totally inadequate and people are being released to the wild much too early.
