Shouldn’t he have antibodies....:and therefore not need to isolate?
Or does he need to isolate as even with antibodies he could still spread it?
What’s the implications of a “vaccine” on the above?
If you’ve taken it and you come into contact with someone who has it, would u have to isolate?

Regulations don't yet allow any deviation from the simple response. If you are contacted, you self isolate.
No real science available yet on whether having already had Covid 19 you a) can't get it again b) can't act as carrier.
Also as per flu vaccine the vaccine won't be a 100% defence so you could still have to self isolate?
Much of this is being made up on the fly and Gvnmt seem to be struggling with scenario planning and more complicated risk and contingency development.

Let's be clear
Boris is isolating because he was in contact with someone who tested +ive
Yes we are in a second lockdown which does not prevent you from coming into contact with people that may or may not test +ive. This second point applies to most of us, where is the beef?

More firms closing sites because of Covid.

You can now add All Bar One and Harvester to the growing list. They're shutting a load of sites.

It’s calamitous.
ive had 3 different isolation dates. Sent off my test this morning as work want a -ve test. They could be paying £100 a test every 48 hours for the next 90 days from what I’ve read. That’s how long you may return a +ve test for. All tho as fas as the gov are concerned from midnight I’m fine

Given that the source of the virus is believed to be bats, and as they have been carrying thr virus for generations, whilst not dying out, (ie they have some level of immunity) why would anyone think that immunity prevents you carrying it and passing it on?

Don't mentioned that to any politicians, they'll go into meltdown!
Actually I think most would. Come to think of it!

I might not be on the button language/news wise here in BE/LU but nothing seems to closing down, and we've got the Ferrero-Roche factory!

Hence mandatory vaccinations....,,,,,,,or presumably the same isolation rules will apply?

One of our contractors has the same issue returning positive tests for weeks afterwards and the customer refusing site entry, which is also understandable.
Hope they are paying you more than SSP!

Vaccines appear to be a bit like buses. The Moderna vaccine has 95% efficacy against COVID and I understand the Russian vaccine is also showing high efficacy and is expected to pass the safety hurdles
