... if they have been a contact of a positive covid case?
An elderly relative was due to be discharged this week but suddenly they have been moved to a private room and told they will not be discharged for ten days for isolation. They have no symptoms and no positive test. They were just on the same ward as a patient who is positive.
I thought guidelines said contacts no longer had to isolate unless they had symptoms or they also tested positive? Why is it different in hospital?
