Changes to Covid guidance
On 16 August the government changed the guidance on self isolation if you have been double-jabbed.
Here is the information you need (courtesy of the BBC website):
- As of 16 August, under-18s and double-vaccinated adults do not have to self-isolate for 10 days if they have had close contact with someone who tests positive for Covid-19
- Instead, people in England are advised to take a PCR test – but you do not have to self-isolate while waiting for the result
- People are advised to take extra precautions such as wearing face coverings in enclosed spaces and limiting contact with others, especially the clinically vulnerable
- If you test negative, no further action is needed
- If you test positive, or start showing symptoms, you must still self-isolate for 10 days.
However, we ask that if you have been in contact with someone who tests positive that you don’t attend any in-person therapies at the Centre for 10 days or until you have received a negative PCR test regardless of your vaccination status. This is to continue to protect everyone who attends the Centre. All other rules on masks and social distancing remain in place at Bradbury House for the foreseeable future.
