Health Ministry drops quarantine for Covid-19 close contact even for unvaccinated

“If Rtk-Ag self-test result is negative and symptoms have improved you may end quarantine but practise preventive measures,” read the post.

For those who are asymptomatic, they can skip the quarantine and Covid-19 tests entirely, but should still practise the preventive measures for at least five days after exposure. The preventive measures listed are to always wear a face mask when leaving home, avoid crowded places, ensure good ventilation, avoid visiting high-risk groups, and to travel for essential needs only.

Previously, only close contacts who had received their vaccine booster doses and were asymptomatic were allowed to skip compulsory quarantine.
