ONS figures suggest proportion of people following rules has slipped since summer
One in four people in their mid-30s to mid-50s are no longer following the full rules around self-isolation after a positive Covid test, according to a survey that suggests compliance with the requirements has slipped since the summer.
The latest figures from the Office for National Statistics, based on a survey of 881 people in England in late September and early October, show that only 75% of respondents aged 35 to 54 complied with the full rules around self-isolation for the 10 days after testing positive for coronavirus.
