What are the current Covid rules - February 2022?

Until the remaining Covid measures are reviewed when parliament returns from recess on 21 February, people who develop Covid symptoms or test positive must self-isolate for 10 days (or five full days following two consecutive negative lateral flow tests).

Other measure still remain in some circumstances:

• face coverings are still required in health and care settings, including hospitals, GP surgeries and pharmacies

• Transport for London and some shops ask people to continue to wear face coverings

• local authorities can recommend face coverings in the communal areas of schools if considered necessary

• care homes no longer have a mandated limit on the number of visitors, but you should still contact the care home before you visit to check their individual requirements

• venues can choose to ask people to show an NHS Covid pass.
