Return Day 2 Test if just had COVID`

VPlumwood

We are due to travel to Greece on the 19th October and both my husband and I have just got COVID,

We are double jabbed but I wondering what would need to do on our return to the UK and testing (assuming the 2 day PCR is still to be done) as ve been tld it can still show a positive test despite it being 3 weeks later?

You have to buy the tests. When you get back phone 119 and ask them if you should take the tests, if they say you should then you take the tests. If you are still testing positive then you will need another discussion with test and trace when they contact you. One of the cases where it is better to do the test as late as possible on day 2 rather than on day 0, to reduce the chance of still testing positive and use a postal service so the results take that little bit longer in case you are sent into isolation again.
