I know the dilemma

I've got layers of family stuff (including a cacooning ex-wife who still needs to see our daughter, who lives with me) to balance out, which is never easy.

I'd say reassessing in a couple of weeks time makes sense - the guidance will have iterated again.

My partner went down with suspected virus just before lockdown. Mentally working through all the possible people we'd interacted with in the danger period was a sobering process.

Patience is pretty key.
