Some updates to self-isolation rules

We’ve made some updates to self-isolation rules:

• If you have COVID-19, you must self-isolate for at least 14 days – even if you’re vaccinated.

• Close contacts who are vaccinated must self-isolate for 7 days (and limit their movements for the next 7 days). Close contacts who are not vaccinated must isolate for 14 days. If you were told you are a close contact before Monday 11 October and you are fully vaccinated, you can stop self-isolating either at the end of the previously advised period or at 11.59pm on Monday 18 October, whichever comes first.

• Casual contacts need to get tested and self-isolate until you get a negative test result – even if you are vaccinated.

• If you have any COVID-19 symptoms, get tested immediately and self-isolate until you get a negative result – even if you‘re vaccinated.

Let’s stay COVID-19 safe.
