From 16 August the rules on self-isolation if you are contacted to say you have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for Coronavirus change:
- If you were double jabbed at least 14 days ago, or are under 18, and you are not showing any symptoms you no longer have to self-isolate if you are a close contact of someone who tests positive for Coronavirus.
- You should however get a PCR test as soon as possible and if you test positive you will have to self-isolate for 10 days
You can get a PCR test sent to your home by going to https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/testing-for-coronavirus-at-home or calling 119.
You can go to 2-4 Malton Road, W10 to have a PCR test.
