Covid

Can I just ask anybody, I'm fairly new to this group still trying to fathom out how it works. I've seen on Google today that diabetics should be extremely vulnerable so can someone tell me are we vulnerable or extremely vulnerable. I work still at the moment full time, so dont know what yo do. Many thanks

Some diabetics are being flagged as ecv. There are a number of discussions as to why as there doesn't seem rhyme or reason as to why. People who score more healthier (age, lower BMI, etc) are being flagged over others

Without underlying other conditions, diabetes is vulnerable only

Hi @Elaine karen and welcome!

There doesn’t seem to be a clear cut answer to your question, but there is a discussion going on about this topic here: https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/diabetics-added-to-the-shielding-list-as-of-today.179900/
