Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.
The Adenovirus usually survives in body for 3-7 days , however, the illness caused by it might persist for 2-3 weeks.
So, if we talk about infection free time, it would be 7 days.
So, you may allow him back after a week.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.
