• Ok I'm confused by the current guidance https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/self-isolation-and-treatment/when-to-self-isolate-and-what-to-do/

    I tested positive last Friday. I was ill over the weekend. As of today I'm currently feeling fairly perky with only mild cold-like symptoms (blocked nose, occasional cough). No more fever. Strongly positive LFT today.

    I need to stay home until tomorrow, I get that. But then after that - I'm still likely to be contagious so I should stay home for 10 days or until 2 consecutive days of negative tests? OR since I feel well enough and don't have a high temperature I should go back to work?

    I emailed H&S and they just said "All restrictions have been lifted in England". Helpful.

    It's not a total disaster to work from home but it's also not straightforward either (I mostly teach in-person and there isn't anyone else to cover it). However causing a mini contagion outbreak by going back in earlier than I should would have worse impacts.
