Covid +ve and ct values

2022-01-23 17:44:21
Hello, My father, age 65, tested covid +ve (with n gene as 20 and orf1 ab gene as 18) has completed 10 days of isolation. On 10th day, he is again tested as covid+ve with increased ct values( n gene and orf1 ab gene both as 28). My queries: 1. Can he come out of room and end his isolation? 2. Should we continue home isolation for 3-4 more days? Thanks!
