Yes, this will be interesting to see how this plays out.
On the one hand you've got the politicians that really want people to be out and about and not facing seemingly endless isolation, and then you've got the scientists that are saying that a positive lateral flow is a very good indicator that someone is still infectious, so do you really want them wandering around in society if they're still testing positive at the end of their designated isolation period.
(It's almost as if this was the exact set of points I was making a few days ago.)
