Fully vaccinated individuals who are alerted by the NHS COVID-19 App on 15 August that they are a contact of a confirmed case can leave isolation from 16 August. The App will provide updated advice for those identified as contacts from 16 August. If an App user is self-isolating because they have symptoms or have tested positive for COVID-19, they should complete their self-isolation period.
