My niece is 13 and on Friday she was told to isolate by her school as the girl she sits next to tested positive. She lives in London where transmission is really high. I spoke to MIL today who said that my SIL has told her she is not allowed out of her room apart from going to the toilet or having a shower. All meals are left outside her door for her to collect and my SIL went shopping and spend £50 on snacks and drinks so she doesn't have to leave her room. MIL is really worried about her she keeps phoning her in tears. My SIL is autistic and takes everything very very seriously but surely confining a 13 yr old to her room for 10 days is going a bit far isn't it??

Hello everyone - we’ve had reports about this thread from many of you concerned that some of the information shared here may not be accurate.

We understand that these are confusing and anxious times for all of us and, unhelpfully, there’s a lot of fake news circulating on social media about Coronavirus. While we’re not in a position to verify every claim posted on the boards, we do urge everyone to keep in mind that not everything you read on the internet will be based on factual information. (We also know that Mumsnetters are very good at debunking the nonsense!)

As always, please do report anything that you’re concerned about. You can also hide a thread if it’s annoying you by clicking on the link at the top.

You can find the most up to date information about COVID-19 on Public Health England and the NHS website.
And here's the guidance on what you can and can't do.

Thanks all and stay safe.
