No. You need to stay isolated for the full amount of time the contact tracer is telling you to be isolated. It used to be 14 days, now it's 10 days. And if you test negative, but then exhibit symptoms, you need to get tested again. The contact tracer should have told OP all of this, I don't know why she's playing dumb. They are very thorough.[/quote]

NP. Plus one

OP, you are right that your DH is being an idiot, but you yourself need to understand that tests are not magical and are  only a snapshot in time. A young teen was exposed (known exposure). Her parents got her tested, she was negative, and they all went to a family event. Several adults got covid and it was traced to the girl. (This was all in the Post a few months back.) You can have Covid and have a negative test, then be seething with virus within hours after that negative test. That is why real and serious quarantining is essential. Of course testing is useful. But sending your kid to an activity like gymnastics after she's been exposed at school? Nope. Quarantine. ALL of you. Do the right thing.

Your DH is acting extremely immature and ill informed, and he's going to teach your daughter the terrible lesson that it's fine for her to do what she wants without regard for rules or other people's health. A virus Does. Not. Care. about your child's competitive gymnastics or you husband's idiocy.

And I agree with a PP who pointed out that yours is a high risk family, between in person schooling and gymnastics. You don't get to have those privileges (and they ARE privileges, not rights) unless your family also is willing to follow the rules. [/quote]
