Blimey.
Never thought it would have got this far! Almost Christmas and nothing seems to have got better re Covid.
Wonder if this is life forever now?!
I'm even wondering whether my holidays next year will even happen?!

Didn’t think it would get to 50 threads!
@emmamatthews thank you for your reply on the last thread re my concerns of kids breathing on me! That has helped. I'm surprised the person ahs to be symptomatic to breath and pass it on, but if true I feel FAR better...
In other news, 3 of my husband's colleagues have tested positive for covid. Work haven't told him and we don't believe they will due to confidentially, word of mouth has. Is he expected to go in to work tmoro or isolate? He's been within 2m of 2 of them, despite trying not too. The staff break out room is too small and they all have to hotdesk. Tia for advice.

Just been for a Sunday lunch at my mother in laws (6 of us) and seemed so wrong to leave and say goodbye cos we're not allowed to do this from tuesday in our area 
just felt like crap lol
just felt like crap lolIt's my understanding that his place of work need to contact track and trace and give over the information to them. They will then contact anyone who they feel needs to isolate if he doesn't hear from them, he doesn't need to isolate, unless he starts to show symptoms
well, the idea of track and trace was so you could isolate, if you had been in contact with anybody who has tested positive. If 3 of your husbands colleagues are definitely positive , then i would suggest isolate. Im not suggesting your husband will of caught it, but stay on the safe side if you can. Thats just my opinion anyway. Does anybody else know more about it on here? I hope you are not panicking x Isnt it works responsibility to have told you ? that doesnt sound very good.
Alot of workplaces are not adhering to track and trace. When were they diagnosed and the company informed? I would give the company 24 hours to inform Track/Trace for them to contact your husband which they should as he was within 2m of them. If not, I would confront a manager and ask straight up. Dont need to mention any names but merely ask if this is true and what needs to be done next. Health is not something we should dither with and if the company does not inform him, they're completely in the wrong.
Didn’t know how to respond to the poll. This thread really helped me in the early days, actually up until recently, but it feels divisive and stresses me out. I don’t feel I can share as much, but that’s ok, I will keep reading for now because it is still some help.
Does feel like thatThe big 5 ooh!

I don't know if work can discuss the health of another employee, though most work places can work it out. It all depends on what track and trace advise and the level of contact between the three positive employees.
Government advice is that the positive people will be contacted by track and trace, they then have to give details of anyone they've had close contact with over the last 48 hours. Track and trace will them contact them if they feel there is a risk. They then have to isolate for 14 days, along with their household.
If no contact from track and trace, then there's no need to isolate.
I agree with you. I used to come here to get reassured but the scaremongering from a few is putting me off at the moment. Hope you're ok x
The employees who have tested positive will be contact by track and trace any way, even if work don't report it and they will want all close contact that they've had over the past 48 hours prior to testing positive
im glad you could help the poster who asked, i wasnt definitely sure to be honest, thanks x
I had to double check off the Gov site but to be honest, it's not wholly informative. There's no definition of what they mean by close contact so I'm assuming it's based on social distance and less than 2 metres contact!! x
Le sigh.....
January 23rd, it started like any other thread........

yes i would think so, thats why people are getting upset, its very confusing, im glad you stepped in with the information anyhow x
I feel the same. I’ve not voted because it used to feel supportive, now it’s almost ‘cliquey.’ I still keep up to date but don’t find myself bothering to share stuff I’ve found/what I think as much X
sorry i didnt mean to quote share what at you, i meant to say share what you like x
Agree, It’s a lot more scary and not as supportive, still post but feel like I’m against the tide these days trying to feel positive and actually think reading might be doing me more harm than good at the min x
