Get household members tested if an NHS staff test positive
I am a district nurse with baby who doesn't have immunity.i have tested positive whiles going about my work. I am positive for COVID19 and my household is at risk,my baby importantly but they can not be tested because they do not work for the NHS.
I already suffer from depression and anxiety. To know i am positive scares me very much not cause of possible death but my family also becoming ill. The government needs to test household members if a staff test positive for COVID 19. I fear so much for my child and partner and i want to be aasured they are safe.
