Change the isolation law so it is fair for everyone not just vaccinated people
The law changed to allow people who are double vaccinated to no longer isolate if they are living with someone who has tested positive for covid.
Does this exception benefit people who have had covid-19? (Due to having slightly better immunity then someone who is double vaccinated) Sadly it doesn’t
Most under 30s are not double vaccinated in the UK at this point. Presumably none vaccinated or single vaccinated people have to isolate as they are at a greater risk of spreading the virus. However there is little evidence to support this and in this scenario they would not be the people spreading the virus, the one who has it would be (who is double vaccinated so presumably is low risk of spreading it)
This change feeds a two tire system which is demoralising, unfair and cruel.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about changes to requirements to self-isolate when you are contacted by NHS Test and Trace, but we're not sure what changes you want to be made to these rules.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what changes you would like the Government or Parliament to make to these rules.
