Responding to the news that the self-isolation period is to be cut from seven to five days, Rhun ap Iorwerth MS, Plaid Cymru spokesperson on health and care, said,
“This is undoubtably good news, but it’s now important to understand what needs to happen to bring this self-isolation period down to zero days – how is Welsh Government assessing this, what conversations are happening, and what criteria will need to be met for this important milestone to be reached?
“In the meantime, we must continue to see effective measures to push down community transmission further and to create more long-term resilience, including more action on clean air in schools, encouraging greater vaccine take-up, and ensuring our health and care services are given the support and resources they need.”
