[Pocoyoz]

https://www.niid.go.jp/niid/en/2019-ncov-e/10884-covid19-66-en.htmlThe positive virus isolation results showed a similar trend as the viral RNA amount, and no infectious virus in the respiratory samples was detected after 10 days since diagnosis or symptom onset (Table). These findings suggest that vaccinated Omicron cases are unlikely to shed infectious virus 10 days after diagnosis or symptom onset.
