Anyone else who can't help feeling like it's just a bit daft?

Before I go on I should say I know logically it's not daft and I understand the reasoning.

But I'm sat here, half way through isolation with positive DS and I can't help thinking it's all a bit ridiculous. He has not had a single symptom other than a very slightly raised temp the first day when I took him for a PCR. After that nothing, not a single cough, not a sniffle, no sore throat, no further temp, absolutely zilch.

I appreciate he's lucky but I have multiple friends who have either tested positive themselves or who's children have and they have felt perfectly fine.

Again, as I say above I do understand it, but the other half of me can't help but laugh at how crazy it is that I'm isolating my child who's perfectly well and doesn't understand why he can't just go about his normal life!

I had it two weeks ago, I have had worse flu, I was in bed for a whole week did not feel great, my dh also had it he would not have know if he had not had the test not one symptom. Only ten people in hospital with the new strain.

We are in Scotland and Queen Nicole came on TV telling us all only three households in your home for Christmas, I won’t be taking a blind bit of notice of these new rules. I have had Covid so have nearly all the family and most of us have had three vaccines, so enough is a enough, we will be having a normal Christmas in my house.

Just a quick post to remind people that PIMS is a very real concern after covid in kids, most often when they have minor symptoms. It's rare but serious.
