Washington, March 9 : The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued its first set of recommendations on activities that people who are fully vaccinated against Covid-19 can safely resume.
They can visit other fully vaccinated people indoors without wearing masks or staying 6 feet apart, according to the guidelines issued on Monday.
Fully vaccinated people can also visit unvaccinated people from one other household indoors without wearing masks or staying 6 feet apart if everyone in the other household is at low risk for severe disease, Xinhua news agency quoted the CDC as saying.
Meanwhile, fully vaccinated people can refrain from quarantine and testing if they do not have symptoms of Covid-19 after coming in contact with someone who is infected.
The CDC defines people who are fully vaccinated as those who are two weeks after receiving the last required dose of vaccine.
“There are some activities that fully vaccinated people can begin to resume now in their own homes. Everyone, even those who are vaccinated, should continue with all mitigation strategies when in public settings,” said CDC Director Rochelle Walensky.
