Message: <blockquote data-quote="Pipp" data-source="post: 2328290" data-attributes="member: 100904">Hi [USER=235117]@London36_[/USER]I am classed extremely clinically vulnerable.Had shielding letters at the very beginning in March, and in the interim from NHS. In addition my local council contacted me asking me to register with them, in case extra support was needed, such as deliveries of food or prescriptions. Although I didn’t need that sort of support, I did register as a sort of ‘insurance’. A few days ago I received an email from Local council, advising shielding again, but just to go out to exercise. Also advised that I would receive notification from Government. The notification from Government came via email. It had my NHS number and DOB. Advice was not to go to work, but work from home if possible.  Also that I should not go to shops, pharmacies, anywhere with crowds. Oh and to stay at least 2 metres from everyone, even those I live with.  That last bit I cannot comply with. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /> Just live in an average size house, not a mansion with multiple kitchens , bathrooms and living rooms.What I think triggered the recent shielding letter from Government, is that as well as diabetes , and having a health condition and medication that suppresses my immune system, is that I registered with Local Authority at the beginning. Perhaps your Local Authority could advise or assist you?</blockquote>
