[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 2250034, member: 100904"] I have today received another text from NHS No Reply [B]“Next week you should be able to register on the Government COVID website for high risk patients if you need support. We’ll contact you when this is confirmed. If you have an urgent non-medical need now and relatives / friends can’t help, contact the council on ***********. If you have a medical need contact your GP.” [/B] All I can say is that I hope this is not the sort of message being sent to really frail, lonely, elderly and disabled folks. I am fortunate in that I am able to source food and supplies from local independent suppliers, but fear there are many truly vulnerable and helpless folks less fortunate. If they, like me, are following instructions to stay home this last 4 weeks, and supermarkets are only registering people for home deliveries when the Government registers them, they will be in a sorry state by the time they get help.
