Friend's husband has Covid - should I spend time with her?

[CodLoverOil]

My friend lives several hours away and is planning to visit. Her husband has now tested positive for covid. She's confident that her home tests are negative. She's been a little slack in adhering to covid guidelines throughout, and I don't 100% trust her testing.

I'm 36 weeks pregnant and have had one vaccine. I feel the media are telling me to be 'careful'. Is spending time with her under these circumstances risky? She's not planning to stay over, and only talking about having a drink at home and meal out.

Legally she has to self-isolate if someone in her household has covid. No WAY would I see her.

No you dont meet

No of course not.

Of course she can’t come, unless she doesn’t live in the same household as her husband? She has to stay home and isolate.

Do you mean she could visit after the isolation period dnds?

She should be isolating at home. Not travelling about. I don't get how people don't understand this.

If she's in the UK she should be self-isolating. You would be absolutely nuts to meet up with her imo. (And if you are in the UK, i'm surprised that you are asking this question. It should be obvious).

Why do you think it would be OK? You're in a higher risk group, are partially vaccinated and she should legally be self-isolating. Seems like a no-brained to me.

Not if she’s supposed to be isolating

Christ of course not and I’m pretty relaxed about covid in general. Do you really need to ask?

*no-brainer

Is this for real?

@NakedAttraction

Is this for real?

I’m wondering because it seems bizarre to even ask this.

It’s difficult to see how this can be a question over a year into the pandemic when the rules about isolating if someone in your own household has symptoms/covid are clear and have not changed.

She has to self isolate.

Does she really not know she should be isolating??
No you shouldn't be seeing her

Wtf - of course not

You must self-isolate!

Sorry!!!! She must self-isolate!

Of course you shouldn't see her

Assuming she lives with her husband then she has to self isolate. Dd's flatmate in halls had to even though dd had already been isolating in her room and not using the communal facilities.

No.

No and she shouldn't even be leaving her house. Is this a reverse?

As everyone else has said - unless she doesn't live with her husband and has not had contact in the last 48 hours, then she should be self isolating.

If I was in the late stages of pregnancy I certainly wouldn't be risking meeting her

No. Tell her she cannot visit as she is supposed to be isolating.

Even my kids know the answer to this question
