Covid isolation
Hello.. I tested positive for Covid about 9 days back, and had symptoms from about 12 days back. I have now tested negative in RTPCR today. Since my wife is pregnant, I was staying away. Since i have tested negative, is it safe to reunite with my pregnant wife? Is there a chance that I would be contagious despite the report being negative?

Once you have completed the isolation 14 days after catching COVID symptoms , without any fever for successive 3 days not taking any fever medicine,you are not contagious
However since your wife is pregnant ,it's better to wear masks when you have come out of isolation
