My co-worker’s husband has Covid symptoms and is waiting for test results. Our boss has said the co-worker can continue to come to work as normal (in close contact with others) unless her husband tests positive. They don’t want her off because she manages a department and getting cover would be difficult and expensive for them.
I am so shocked that a number of managers have all okayed this and made this decision (and despite people complaining they have said they’re right!) 
I was under the impression the whole family needs to isolate until a negative result. Is that still the rule or have I missed an update on this?
