Can anyone point me in the direction of some comprehensive guidance on what to do if: 1. We identify a confirmed infection amongst our staff, and 2. We identify a suspected case amongst our staff.

The Gov, guidance is very good in that it helps us identify at-risk groups and the advice on self-isolation is quite clear. 

There are some gaps though:

For example, is it recommended that we try to identify colleagues, customers and others they have come into contact with? And what advice do we give to people who may have had contact say 10 days before?

This is particularly tricky for suspected infections..

Thanks. David M

The government guidance includes the information you're looking for. Mainly involves local health protection teams leading the way regarding other potentially affected people etc. however not sure it has been updated since the latest government advice this week.

Regarding giving people a lift home - we are suggesting that infected people use a family member or friend and if they can't we will try to get a volunteer to drive them and advide they passenger stays in the back seat.

Surely if I show symptoms of the virus, I'll be sent home to self isolate for 14 days, so by default my wife will have to self isolate as well. So in my mind, my wife would be the one to collect me and take me home. 

Where I live the bus comes through the village twice a day so public transport not ideal. But can also understand the issues of people living in big urban connobations where public transprt is a way of life
