    Covid and Work, Covid Advice and General Chat

    It mean when and if an out break occurs you can trace the people from an office setting where it is the same people in the same office every day compared to a pub that is full of strangers who will be harder to trace, The concern is containment, not safety. :stop:

    Hi Jbicheno, I have been working all through the outbreak in constant contact with the public, adults and kids alike and I can understand how you are feeling, kids do not socially distance and the adults are even worse. I live in Aberdeen and even in the midst of this new outbreak I see people...

    Are we reurning to 'normal' too quickly.

    Yeah, just not feeling it. Your gonna have to up the anti if you want to get it green lit as a show on Netflix, can I suggest a kitchen floor covered in mouse traps a blindfolded cook and the house set up next door to a puppy shelter. Now that's Entertainment. ;) :bag:

    A question : is it legal to refuse replacement of not working item?

    I think as @urbanracer says may have violated your contract with Dexicom by using 3rd party software and as you say your claim has already been rejected. Legally and I am not a layer, it sounds like you do not have a leg to stand on but check it out with a citizens advice or a real layer...

    Type 1 and Teacher

    You can not predict what a Doctor will or will not do. And neither can I but it is my assumption that if you are in an at risk group in fear for your life then they would probably agree to. I have found over the years Dr's are usually sympathetic to more than just physical needs. ;) Which sound...

    Hi @Emmett7 if you don't feel safe then you should not go back just now. I would get signed off, It's your life that is at risk. If you do get signed of for a couple of months by then the school term will be finished and you will have even more breathing space to see how this virus is...

    Reversing Diabtes

    Hi Maz21, The 5 year question should be yes, its possible. There is some question to if it can be done after 10 years but I don't remember hearing 5 years as some kind of cut of point. 8 weeks on the 800 calories a day works for some people, there are people on here who can testify to it...

    Does low carb work for all diabetics

    Hi Cornton in theory yes but there are some people on here who don't eat any carbs at all and some who eat mostly carbs as with everything it boils down to the individual. Is it possible you are eating more carb/ sugar than you think? Can you give us a typical days meals to see? ;) :bag:
