LONDON: Downing Street has moved to combat confusion over how people should respond if “pinged” as a contact by the NHS Covid-19 app.
Number 10 said it was “crucial” for people to quarantine in line with the app’s recommendation, just hours after a government minister suggested people should make an “informed decision” about whether to obey the technology.
Business minister Paul Scully said self-isolating after being told to by the app was a decision for individuals and employers.
Another minister in the business department, Lord Grimstone of Boscobel, stressed in a letter to one large employer that the app was only an “advisory tool” and that people were not under any “legal duty”, The Times reported.
The Scottish Government is planning to remove the self-isolation requirement on double-jabbed individuals as Scotland opens up more fully.
Instead of a mandatory self-isolation period for close contacts, double-jabbed individuals would be able to avoid self-isolation if they receive a negative PCR test result.
However, most of those working in hospitality are younger people who are unlikely to be double jabbed and protected until October due to the requirement for two weeks to have passed since the second dose.
Self-isolating if contacted by Test and Protect or after testing positive is a legal requirement, but following the advice of the Protect Scotland app has always been advisory.
