We were in contact with someone yesterday who was unknowingly positive (hospital discharge, end of life, hospital has informed us today relative is positive 24hrs after discharge!).

Do we just LFT or do we need a PCR too? Adult fully vaccinated, child only had one dose.

If you're in England you just need to do daily LFTs for 7 days, only get a PCR if you develop symptoms. I was a close contact last week so just been through it all.

Thanks! Do you know whether it is OK to have the second dose and booster within the 7 days? Both appointments booked for tomorrow.

Booster for adult, second dose for teen to clarify!

Did you end up catching it? I was close contact on Monday so it a waiting game 😢

I didn't catch it. I did have Covid in August so maybe I do still have some immunity, although I know I probably had Delta and it's different with Omicron.

I'm not sure to be honest!
