Description:

Updated Dec. 22, 2020

Isolation is used to separate people infected with the virus (those who are sick with COVID-19 and those with no symptoms) from people who are not infected.

People who are in isolation should stay home until it’s safe for them to be around others. In the home, anyone sick or infected should separate themselves from others by staying in a specific “sick room” or area and using a separate bathroom (if available).

What’s the difference between quarantine and isolation?

Isolation separates people who are infected with the virus from people who are not infected.

Quarantine keeps someone who might have been exposed to the virus away from others.
