DH had a headache, said his chest felt tight and slept a lot yesterday. By early evening he felt fine and ate a massive dinner. Headache fine with tablets. He feels absolutely fine this morning.
Do we self isolate as a family? His symptoms have all gone.
I'm thinking yes but just thought I'd canvass opinions.

I would say yes. DS had a cough for one day, He was fine the next day but has just gone back to work today after 7 days of self-isolation.

DH and and I are on the second week of our self-isolation and I’m a key worker. It’s shit, but I’m not taking an chances.

I know you're right. It's frustrating because he will only have to self isolate for 7 days and we will have to do 14. And he's fine! But I know we could affect others and thats the bigger picture. I'm a key worker too and feel guilty as I am not ill at all.
