A child in my son’s class has tested positive today - he was last in on Monday. Will the bubble have to close? Thanks.

Yes I think so.

It depends when his symptoms started.

LFT or has he had a PCR confirmation?

KatherineOfGaunt · 30/06/2021 22:25

It depends. Is the school trialling testing instead of isolation? Do the school close bubbles or send home only close contacts?

Most likely yes, though.

Primary or secondary?

He’s had PCR confirmation. Symptoms yesterday I believe. This is a primary and have previously sent bubbles home.

Yes I would think so as he was in contact with them the day before symptoms started (I think they usually go back two days from when symptoms started)

Yes, almost certainly.

Thanks for the advice. Will wait to see what the school say.

Yes I would expect so as they go back 48 hours from when symptoms started
