Im reading lots about people 'staying at home' we have been isolating due to symptoms i had initially, high temp and a sore throat. I really dojt think it was/is covid as i feel pretty normal again in 4 days, no temp etc.

My partner is due to finish isolation on Wednesday and return back to work as a plumber.

Should he return? Should he stay off and we social distance from there? Or does he carry on as normal, im anxious his work woild fire him for making that decision.

We have a 3 month old DD and i have a connective tissue disorder, Fibromyalgia and an autoimmune disorder so anxious on both our parts, his family also have diabetes, asthma (severe) and a heart attack in his mums household.

What to do??? Im certain its not covid we just had so im now anxious about him picking it up at work.

Anyone who is isolating now, are you returning back to work?

I'm currently isolating with my two children. Had a sore throat and mild cough last week. I feel completely better now but I'll finish my isolating period never the less., I manage a mental health rehab unit so have to go back to work, as a single parent and nurse I feel I have no other option. I'm going to see if I can work some of my hours from home but I'm not sure yet.
