The incubation period of COVID-19, which is the time between exposure to the virus and symptom onset, is on average 5-6 days, but can be as long as 14 days. Thus, quarantine should be in place for 14 days from the last exposure to a confirmed case.

Where did you get the 2 to 3 days from?

the usual we are seeing is 2-3. average is 5 meaning a significant number are less than 5. 14 days is an outlier. And why would we quarantine at all let alone 14 days? seriously
