Need Covid information

My wife and are fully vaxxed and have the booster.

Her daughter who is also fully vaxxed and has the booster but still came down with Covid. She started showing signs this past Sunday. We were there for dinner

She is feeling better today

My wife and I are not showing or experiencing any symptoms.

Can somebody me show me a site that shows the protocol for quarantining?

I’m having trouble location the information on the CDC site

PCR test would be preferable since not all of the antigen/POC tests are picking up Omicron but if you do get an antigen test I suggest making sure it’s an Abbott BinaxNOW test.

I think you should absolutely make sure you wear a high-quality mask at all times when near any other people.

Good luck to you and your wife.

I probably had it, with 3 negative BinaxNOW tests.
My daughter definitely had it with 1 negative BinaxNOW test

Quarantine yourselves even though you don't have symptoms. Infecting others is not cool.

Test at 5 days after exposure.

Fully vaxxed =
* any booster- OR
* mRNA less than 6 months ago
* J&M less than 2 months ago

(I don't necessarily agree with not isolating following exposure, but that is (still) the recommendation).

Here is a chart, based on the most recent CDC guidelines for everything else:
