I am in permanant Afib, i work in the nhs, on the front line in the operating theatres, i have been on annual leave for over a week now and due back next week, i am terrified, what are the guidelines, should i be going back or should i stay isolated? There are so many conflicting articles? Thanks all, stay safe.
