The Ministry of Labour said in a statement:”The Ministry requests all units of the state’s administrative apparatus and other public legal persons, and private sector institutions to implement the health isolation system for those infected with Covid-19 and contacts, as follows:
- Unvaccinated person in contact with infected cases should be isolated for a period of seven days if he/she is asymptomatic, and on the eighth day, he/she should perform a Covid-19 test. If the test result is negative, the isolation is terminated, and if the test result is positive, then ten days of isolation must be completed.
- A vaccinated person in contact with infected cases is not isolated unless symptoms appear. In this case, he/she should perform a Covid-19 test if the result of the test is positive, he/she is isolated for seven days and on the eighth day, he/she should perform a rapid antigen test. If the result of the test is negative, the isolation is terminated, and if it is positive, he/she should complete ten days of isolation.
- Patients who have symptoms must conduct a Covid-19 test. If the test result is positive, he/she should be isolated for seven days and on the eighth day, he/she should perform a rapid antigen test. If the test result is negative, the isolation is terminated, and if it is positive, he/she has to complete ten days of isolation.
- If the patient has no symptoms and the PCR test is positive (for example, a test for the purpose of travel), he/she has to be isolated for 72 hours, after which a rapid antigen test is performed. If the test result is negative, the isolation is terminated.”
