My mum, a head dinner lady in a primary school, has been developing a cough since Christmas day and she delayed and dithered before requesting a home testing kit a couple of days ago which is still to arrive. She emailed the school to let them know, their reply :
I have checked with XXX and 10 days self isolating from Dec 25th allows you to return to work in person from Tues 5th.
Kind Regards
As long as she's just got a cough that seems to be the NHS guidance?
You can stop self-isolating after 10 days if [...] you just have a cough or changes to your sense of smell or taste – these can last for weeks after the infection has gone.
