The announcement was made last night by the National Committee for Emergency Situations, which established the same regime for those who were in direct contact with a positive person more than 10 days after being vaccinated with the second dose. Also, people confirmed with SARS-CoV-2 could get out of the caratine on the tenth day if they take a test and the result is negative.
