The cost to the economy will be more because people will be self isolating unecessarily. I have symptoms so that's me, DP and dd self isolating. I can't visit my mum and she has carers. Very high risk.
I don't think I've got it, but if i have and I get tested then I'd know.
There are always so many bugs going around at this time of year. What if I get sick again?
I can't work from home, my employers are paying people during self isolating but how long that will go on? It's a big company but how long can they keep that up?
If they test people it will add more certainty and we could be better informed to beat this.
Then thete are the twats who think, it's just a cold so ignore guidelines
