How sick are you? If all you have is omicron you don't need to worry much. You will be over it in a few days.

If you test positive, your self-isolation period includes the day your symptoms started (or the day you had the test, if you do not have symptoms) and the next 7 full days. If you get symptoms while you're self-isolating, the 7 days restarts from the day after your symptoms started.



You can leave self-isolation after 7 full days (on day 8 of your self-isolation period). You should take a lateral flow test (LFT) on day 6 of your self-isolation period and another lateral flow test 24 hours later. This is to check if you remain infectious and could pass COVID-19 on to others.

You should not take a LFT before the sixth day of your self-isolation period because the risks of remaining infectious and the chances of passing it on to others before this period is significantly higher.

If you are a close contact of someone who has tested positive for COVID-19, you should follow this guidance. If you are not fully vaccinated, you are legally required to self-isolate as a close contact for 10 days.

@Proggy21 test and trace will then be in touch to tell you your isolation period

@Proggy21 btw isolation is irrespective of vaccination status once you have a positive pcr test

@Proggy21 when yiu book yr pcr you have to enter info online as to when your symptoms started or if you are asymptomatic. is yr pcr is positive, its registered, so they will inform you when your isolation starts and ends.
CDC says:

To calculate your 10 full day isolation period, day 0 is your first day of symptoms. Day 1 is the first full day after your symptoms developed.

@Mamapolo2016 so I isolate the from the first day the symptoms began not from the day I took a positive test

{@proggy21] is there no official guidance for wales on the internet for the time limit you need to isolate if you contract crona virus
And I hope you get well soon.
