Covid in Wales: Self-isolation rules to ease for double jabbed
News from the BBC
Wales will become the first UK country to stop asking fully vaccinated adults to self-isolate after close contact with a positive Covid case.
The change will affect more than two million people who have received two jabs.
Under-18s will also be exempt under the new rules being brought in from 7 August.
The Welsh government said the decision would "ease pressure on vital services" after a recent rise in cases.
