Newcastle hospital staff who have been in close proximity to someone with coronavirus may still be allowed to work if they have no symptoms.
Newcastle Hospitals NHS Trust said it was facing unprecedented staffing pressures because of the number having to self isolate.
Some staff have Covid but many are off work because they, or their children, have been identified as contacts.
The trust said no-one would be forced to come into work. We are using further clarification we have received from Public Health England North East to help us take a pragmatic approach to managing staff absences, a spokesperson said.

Newcastle is now the biggest Covid hotspot in England, the city s public health director has said.
It comes as provisional data released by the city council on 2 July showed there were 613 new weekly cases per 100,000 people.
Official government figures up to 27 June have the city s infection rate as the second highest in England, behind the North West.
But Prof Eugene Milne says the latest figures now place it as the highest.
