This method does not make sense to me after reading the article. Did anyone happen to see this part? (bolded quoted below) Currently people are being told to quarantine for 14 days because the virus can show up at any point. You can be contagious and spread it without knowing, before symptoms show.
So with this new test, they are acknowledging the fact the virus could still develop and saying travellers need to be tested AGAIN at days 6 and 7 but allowing them to leave quarantine after 48 hours anyways? Am I missing something?
“Once a test comes back negative, [travellers] will be allowed to leave quarantine, provided they get another test at days six and seven because the virus can take time to develop and become detectable,” said Kenney, who is currently in self-isolation at his home in Edmonton after one of his ministers tested positive for COVID-19 a day earlier.
