Based upon critical staffing levels, have you explored the possibility of reducing from 10, to, for example 7-8 days, isolation time in asymptomatic HCPs recovering from COVID-19?
The household studies early on suggested no transmission after 6 days, but that was before the Delta variant.
Feel free to respond to me individually, and I will report out the aggregate.
Thanks
