Explanatory note

PART 3Requirement to isolate etc.

CHAPTER 1Requirement to isolate etc. where person tests positive for coronavirus or has close contact with such person

Requirement to isolate: adult with coronavirus6.

(1)

This regulation applies where an adult (“A”) is notified by a contact tracer that A has tested positive for coronavirus.

(2)

A may not leave or be outside the place where A is living before the end of the last day of A’s isolation unless regulation 10 or 11 applies.

(3)

If requested by a contact tracer, A must notify the contact tracer—

(a)

of the name of each person living at the place A is living, and

(b)

of the address of that place.

(4)

The last day of A’s isolation is the last day of the period of 10 days beginning with the day after the day of the test which led to the notification referred to in paragraph (1) being given.

(5)

But where A reports to a contact tracer the day on which symptoms first developed, the last day of A’s isolation is the last day of the period of 10 days beginning with the day after the day which A reports as being the day on which the symptoms first developed.
