Do I isolate DD with different symptoms?

[hayley013]

My 1 year old daughter has came down with a high fever, runny nose, I suspect a sore throat too as spitting out water and a very slight rash that looks viral.

I know these are not necessarily symptoms of coronavirus, but do I need to isolate her as she is unwell? I wouldn't be taking her out anyway until she improves but would you say it's a necessity to not go out at all for 7 days and have no visitors etc? She doesn't have a new cough, which I know is one of the two factors for self-isolating, but she may well end up needing to have her throat checked out if temp doesn't settle.

Yes, advice is self isolate for seven days with a fever or a cough and she meets the requirement for that.

Hope she’s feeling better soon.

Just to confirm before anyone jumps on it, I would not take her anywhere where I think she'd pass on germs, this is how she keeps picking it up! It's more a question of do we need to self-isolate specifically

It’s very unlikely the Coronavirus but yes you should isolate her. She would pose a risk to others with a weakened immune system

Thanks for the reply, and I'm guessing if she needed medical assistance to follow normal procedure of 111 etc. Would they be willing to see her to check throat etc if she's presenting these symptoms though? Only reason being the throat issue is recurrent, she's had antibiotics 3 times since dec for it

I very highly doubt it's coronavirus, and do worry about the implications and risk to others
