So my in laws who look after my son at their house have taken a student from South Korea and she flew on Sunday from a korea - would I be crazy to let them look after my 2 year old?

Current advice is that travellers from South Korea only need to self isolate if they also have symptoms.

However honestly I wouldn’t let you in laws look after your 2 year old for at least 14 days just to be on the safe side.

I would ring GP or NHS 111 for proper advice.

The uk government website is saying south isolate for 14 days if you have come from affected areas?!
