Covid 19 - Update

As we are about to enter the colder part of the school year and covid appears to once again to be on the rise, I thought it may be useful to remind you of the governments advice:

• If a child or young person has a positive COVID-19 test result they should try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people for 3 days after the day they took the test, if they can.
• After 3 days, if they feel well and do not have a high temperature, the risk of passing the infection on to others is much lower. This is because children and young people tend to be infectious to other people for less time than adults.
• Children and young people who usually go to school, college or childcare and who live with someone who has a positive COVID-19 test result should continue to attend as normal.

For adults the advice is:

• If you have a positive COVID-19 test result, try to stay at home and avoid contact with other people for 5 days after the day you took your test.
• At the end of this period, if you have a high temperature or feel unwell, try continue to avoid contact with other people until you feel well enough to resume normal activities and you no longer have a high temperature if you had one.
