Yes: You are sick with COVID 19. You don't want to spread the virus to anyone, even someone who you think may be immune. Keeping isolated COVID 19 means that you stay in a room and don't come out unless you need medical attention

COVID 19: You would likely both have the same strain of COVID 19 virus. If your partner has worked through COVID 19 he is likely building at least temporary immunity. Because of this, I don't see a need to isolate from your partner.
