I wasn't going to bother with it if I am honest  |
I have the Scottish one but the situation so far up here is slightly less dire. It's self-isolate for 14 days OR until you get a test, and so far we're not having the same problems with test availability as you have Darn Sarf, so it's really unlikely to be more than 2 - 3 days isolation (less for us as my wife is front line NHS, so we have access to testing pretty much instantly and then it's just the 24h wait).
In the absense of abundant testing capacity, it's just going to be a farce, half of England will be on 14 day isolation constantly and 99% of them won't have Covid.
Basically, a test and trace app is completely useless without quick and easy access to tests.
