Keep in mind that people with severe COVID-19—primarily those who end up in the hospital—may be infectious for much longer, even as many as 20 days. However, the CDC does point out that the majority of severe COVID-19 patients — over 88 percent — were no longer infectious after 10 days and 95 percent could not infect others by the 20 days mark.So one out of twenty with a severe case of COVID are still infectious after 20 days? That seems like a lot. If you get really sick, it sounds like you should quarantine thirty days and come up with a couple of negative tests.

If you are really sick get your butt to the hospital.
