I have Covid. Should I send my child to nursery?

[Wnikat]

Interested in what others would do. I am on day 7 of covid. My 3 year old is legally allowed to go to nursery under the new rules. She has had 2 negative PCR tests, the last one yesterday. Would you send her to nursery?
YABU: yes
YANBU: no

@crayray You have too much faith in the government who've been appalling throughout. You may feel comfortable following their shoddy advice and that's fine that's up to you but there will be others who simply think a bit of common sense is needed. There are also those who have no choice but to follow the advice because of financial implications, again they are stuck between a rock and a hard place. Then there are others who are morally minded of their actions again there is nothing wrong with that either.

I don't have too much faith in them (trust me), I just don't have the arrogance to think that I know better. Furthermore it's not just the government rules that allow it. It's the fact that, as I said, the DC has tested negative and the vast majority of adults are now doubled vaccinated.

I absolutely agree that everyone needs to make their own individual decisions. What I abhor is how people claim their way is the morally correct way, and that people who do otherwise must be 'joking', selfish or uncaring.

@crayray Thing is that goes both ways those who are using their own common sense on top of Gov advice are mocked too called crazy and what not. Lines like it's not just covid that kills, I'm fully aware of that and that equates to some of my decision making especially when my DH was diagnosed with cancer two weeks into the first lockdown. Having also lost two relatives not with covid but the knock on effect of covid meant many missed months of providing comfort and care to loved ones in need at that time. Everyone's perspective on the situation and their lived experiences throughout will be different, I just wish people would be kinder. I hope nothing I've written has caused any offence too.

Thank you @crayray he's doing ok physically it's mentally that he's not doing so great, but he's a typical bloke who bottles things up
