        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Idris Elba</strong> has passed the approved period of time required to be in quarantine after testing positive for the coronavirus, but still can&#8217;t go home to the U.K.</p><p>The &#8220;Cats&#8221; star <a href="https://twitter.com/idriselba/status/1245096669483397120">shared on social media</a>&nbsp;on Tuesday that he and his wife, Sabrina Dhowre Elba, who also tested positive, are &#8220;a little bit stuck limbo&#8221; because they &#8220;can&#8217;t get a flight back home.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;We just have to sit still a little bit,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Other than that, we&#8217;re OK, and we&#8217;re so thankful for that. I think the worst of it has probably passed.&#8221;</p><p>According to the <strong>Center for Disease Control&#8217;s travel restriction&#8217;s policy</strong>, people who have a &#8220;communicable disease constituting a public health threat&#8221; may be placed on a Do Not Board list.</p><p>However, once public health authorities confirm a person is no longer contagious, the individual can be removed from the list within 24 hours.</p><p>The <strong>CDC also states</strong> that those who have tested positive, but have not shown any symptoms, may discontinue home isolation when at least 7 days have passed after their diagnosis, and they&#8217;ve had no subsequent illnesses.</p><p>On March 16, Idris, 47, announced that <strong>he contracted COVID-19.</strong> Less than a week later, Sabrina, 30, said <strong>she also had the illness</strong>.</p><p>The actor shared on Tuesday that he and his spouse are still asymptomatic.</p><p>He encouraged others to stay optimistic and not neglect their mental health, saying, &#8220;I hope you guys are, too, keeping yourselves sane and not getting too worried and too panicked. Take it from me, I thought I was definitely going to see the worst of it as an asthmatic, but thankfully I came through.&#8221;</p><p>Idris and Sabrina are in quarantine in New Mexico, where Idris was filming a new movie for Netflix, &#8220;The Harder They Fall,&#8221; <strong>according to Deadline</strong>.</p><p>“I’m on location, about to start a film, and the news breaks that this person who is also in the public eye had tested positive…So, it was definitely something I had to do, as I was about to start filming and was around a lot of people,&#8221; Elba said when he first shared his diagnosis. &#8220;Quite honestly, my job made me test immediately.”</p>]]></content:encoded>
