The Interim Chief Medical Officer has said people need to take a common sense approach to Covid isolation rules.
Many businesses have faced staffing issues due to the high number of people testing positive for Covid-19 in recent weeks.
Interim CMO Professor Breda Smyth has said if people test positive on an antigen they need to follow seven day isolation rules.
She suggested people take a common sense approach to symptoms:
"If you have symptoms, it is really important that you stay at home until your symptoms have significantly resolved and it's 48 hours post that time that you would be that you would no longer be infectious and that's what was the really important thing that we don't have infectious people circulating within our community."
