“All quarantine is to be stopped with immediate effect. This applies to both vaccinated and unvaccinated contacts. No testing for Covid-19 is required irrespective of the risk exposure unless the contact becomes symptomatic,” he added.
Buthelezi said the people who have been infected and have been in isolation can return to work after eight or 10 days depending on the individual’s clinical status, adding there is no need for the Covid-19 test to be performed before returning to work after isolation.
