English term or phrase: self-isolation
Definition from HSE:
Isolation is a health care term that means keeping infected people away from the uninfected. Self-isolation means staying indoors and completely avoiding contact with other people. This is required of all people who have been in contact with known infected people, who have traveled from high risk zones, who have any related symptoms or who have tested positive for the virus.

Example sentence(s):
  • Experts also recommend self-isolation or quarantine for those who have contacted a health professional and show symptoms of the disease — including fever, dry cough, and fatigue — but haven’t yet been tested yet, and for those who have been in close contact with people known to have the virus.
