Question: If I am self isolating do I need to stay at home?

Answer passage (source: UK):
page_title: Guidance Guidance for households with grandparents, parents and children living together where someone is at increased risk or has symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) infection
section_headers: Why staying at home is very important
section_content: It is very important that individuals with symptoms that may be due to
coronavirus and their household members stay at home. Staying at home will
help control the spread of the virus to friends, the wider community, and
particularly the most vulnerable.
Those with symptoms should remain at home for at least 7 days after the onset
of their symptoms as set out in the stay-at-home
guidance. This will reduce the risk of you
infecting others.
If one of you has symptoms that may be caused by coronavirus, then household
members must also stay at home and not leave the house for 14 days as set out
in the stay-at-home
guidance and the ending household isolation
section below. You should not go out even to buy food or other essentials
unless you have no other means to secure them, and any exercise should be
taken within your home. The 14-day period starts from the day when the first
person in your house became ill.
If you are having food or other essentials delivered to your house, the person
who is delivering the items should not come into your home. Staying at home
for 14 days will greatly reduce the overall amount of infection the household
could pass on to others in the community.
Staying at home may be difficult and frustrating, but there are things that
you can do to help make it easier. These include:

plan ahead and think about what you will need in order to be able to stay at home for the full 7 or 14 days
talk to your employer, friends and family to ask for their help to access the things you will need to make your stay at home a success
think about and plan how you can get access to food and other supplies such as medications that you will need during this period
ask friends or family to drop off anything you need or order supplies online, but make sure these are left outside your home for you to collect
make sure that you keep in touch with friends and family over the phone or through social media
think about things you can do during your time at home. People who have successfully completed a period of staying at home have kept themselves busy with activities such as cooking, reading, online learning and watching films
many people find it helpful to plan out the full 14 days, such as on a make-shift calendar. You may also find it helpful to plan in advance what you will do if, for example, someone in the household were to feel much worse, such as have difficulties breathing
when you are feeling better, remember that physical exercise can be good for your wellbeing. Look for online classes or courses that can help you take light exercise in your home
