name changed for this one.

My younger brother is being flown back from asia this weekend to be at home with us - he will have to self isolate in his bedroom for 14 days for obvious reasons.

My mum is saying he can go in and out of the garden as he pleases , whilst there are other people in the house including a 2 year old, and including a person with one kidney and high blood pressure.

My view is he cannot leave the room for the whole 14 days obviously apart from toilet trips and shower - which is right next to his bedroom

But if he is going to the garden, he is coming downstairs, through the kitchen etc and touching things etc,

He goes to the garden without touching anything through doors that you have opened fo him whilst you stay 2m away

Th biggest risks will be bathroom and food utensils , perhaps leave a bowl of soapy water by his door for his dishes?
