So my ex-husband is due to collect the children tomorrow. He has told me that a family member has tested positive and they had contact on Sunday. She tested today so I am assuming that she took the test yesterday. Ex-husband has chosen to not have any dose of the vaccine. I have suggested that he perhaps collect the children on Sunday to give him a few days to see if any symptoms develop. He is now accusing me of denying access to his children and refusing to agree and he saying that he's going to take them tomorrow. I am very concerned. The youngest child was in hospital last week and both of been very rundown recently, I also live with a clinically vulnerable person so it is natural that I am a bit cautious about this.
Is there any guidance about this? How would any other parent feel in this situation?

As he hasn't been double jabbed he needs to isolate and so can't have the children until 10days after his contact with positive case

If he was in contact he should be isolating if unvaccinated. He sounds like a piece of work, happy for you he’s your ex.

But the website says that's only if you have been a close contact for 2 days since the positive test. Apparently she's asymptomatic (not that I believe him!). I'm assuming she did the test yesterday (weds) the contact was Sunday.

Depends when the contact had symptoms. A close contact would be someone who was in contact in the 48 hours before symptoms so if he saw them on Sunday he could be outside the 48 hour period.

He doesn't need to isolate unless T&T tells him to

He's absolutely horrendous. He's saying I've spilt any trust we had in co parenting and I'm denying him access.... just because I suggested we delay the contact until Sunday.
