Do I have to still isolate?

Can someone please help me with this. I'm currently self isolating because I tested positive for covid. My symptoms started on 12th. Positive test result on 14th. 10 days isolation finishing on 22nd
.
I have children. Two began showing symptoms on 14th so now have to isolate for 10 days finishing on 24th.
My 3rd child has today started showing symptoms. So her isolation restarts again today. So she finishes on 27th.

Do I have to isolate even though I've had COVID and my isolation period is over?

My brain is foggy and I can't find guidance on line.
Thank you Smile

My friend had this. She got it in writing from T&T that she didn’t need to reisolate as all the symptoms started in everyone within a short time frame so it was obviously the same virus and not different strains.

No you don't. Once your isolation is over, you are free.

no because the rest of you are still in isolation. Hope you all feel better soon.

It’s hard to find but is clearly stated on the gov website. Link

@newmoney
Op is asking about herself. Yes her child has to continue isolating but not the op

OP needs to continue isolating as it is the 17th (about to be 18th) which is not even close to 10 days after the 12th. The OP can leave isolation on the 23rd, the first 2 children on the 25th and the third on the 28th, all assuming that they have no symptoms by that stage. During that period nobody can visit the OPs house due to isolating members.
