• I’m confused by the official advice. If you have symptoms you are meant to self isolate at home. This had been extended to 14 days now because, if I’ve understood, it time for the infected person to recover and any family members who catch it to then recover? But the advice is still that the infected person stays in a seperate room and avoids coming within 2m of family, sharing kitchen etc?

    Why extend the time to allow family members to get it but also try your hardest not to infect family members? When the two weeks is up if you are successful another family member could catch it and the process starts again.

  • The 14 days isn’t for everyone to recover, it’s enough time for family members to show signs of infection if it’s been transmitted.
