I was feeling indignant. It had been almost 36 hours since my eight-year-old son Isaac was issued a quarantine order after we were informed on May 13 that he had been in close contact with a Covid-19 case in St Andrew's Junior School.
He and I had spent the whole day on tenterhooks waiting to be taken to a quarantine facility.
