This is one of the stressful things though - the mild symptoms have you second guessing yourself. On one hand you feel like you're making too much of a big deal about something that doesn't feel very serious, but on the other if you don't act appropriately your negligence could literally cost lives. It's precisely why there's a lockdown - it's very hard to judge who is ill and who isn't.
Also there's no right answer. Although there kind of is - any doubt self isolate.
But obviously the stress of this is gonna make people feel shit regardless of how long they self isolate.
Absolutely - definitely isolate in any case, but even isolating with mild symptoms can lead to anxiety or self doubt that you're somehow overreacting. Maybe it's a British thing about how we hate to make a fuss.
