COVID 19 Testing Update
Coronavirus update - Friday 11th March 2022
From 24th February, there is no legal requirement to self-isolate after a positive COVID test. This means your employees can legally come to work with COVID, putting other members of staff at risk of infection.
There were other announcements too:
• Fully vaccinated individuals and under 18s no longer have to test themselves for seven days after coming into contact with a positive case.
• COVID SSP rules will still be in place until 24 March.
• From 1 April, free COVID testing will end for the general public.
These changes apply to England only; Scotland and Wales will be setting out their own strategy.
