[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2264263, member: 41816"] Hi Jane, I am afraid that is not a question that anyone on this forum can answer. We are all individual, and the figs that [USER=518059]@Lupf[/USER] has been talking about are averages based on a group of people. Each of us as an individual will have individual health issues which will affect our individual risk. As an example, your profile is incomplete and you do not say what type of diabetes you have, and whether you have any other co-morbidities. That affects the numbers, a great deal. Please understand that no member of this forum is in a position to give you a personalised COVID risk assessment, and if you are sufficiently concerned, you should contact your doctor to discuss the risk with them, and whether you should be on the Shielding list (although at age 70 my understanding is that you are in the Extremely Vulnerable list and should be rigorously socially distancing already).
