What percentage of people self isolating don't have covid?

By far the biggest proportion of self isolating people will be those who are awaiting a test and results which will turn out to be negative.

Add in people self isolating due to close contact who don't have it and it will likely be higher than 80%.

These people "popping out the shop" is not really acceptable for me. 

Not sure your fag packet calculations are suitable enough to shape isolation policy either.
