Comments

Does your underlying health conditions actually fall into the list that would make you extremely vulnerable and therefore advised to shield?

Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.0 -
Then you have just received an advisory letter from your doctor which is totally different to that issued to the clinically vulnerable.lesterlad said:The gp used neither isolate or shield in letter, she as put it would not be advisable for me to attend work during coronavirus pandemic. With regards to the letter GP's should complete I will speak to them about this when someone rings me on Wednesday. I am so stressed over this I have had no money at all for 8 weeks now and its starting to have an effect on my health.0
