We are in England and DH has tested positive with Covid on Lateral Flow after having bad symptoms last night. Myself and 4 year old son are fine, we have tested negative this morning. DS has nursery on Monday morning- it appears from latest guidance he is OK to go (as long as negative) even with Covid in the household- would just like to check this is indeed the case now?

Yes, as long as he is well, he can go.

Yes. He’s fine to go. There are literally no restrictions anymore. Even your husband doesn’t legally need to isolate!

Yes unless your nursery has rules beyond the restrictions.

My youngst is in y1 and had all the symptoms and tested positive monday. My elder child tested negative so went to school. As a precaution, we tested elder on tuesday and despite seeming ok albeit a very mild cough, she then tested positive and then we all did by end of week.

Even though restrictions have lifted, schools still expect kids to isolate when they are positive and only go back once tested negative on both days 5 and 6.

Maybe check with the nursery and see what they say

Legally can go. Morally I find it abhorrent to consider it.
