[QUOTE="Jamie H, post: 2267425, member: 523528"] If solely relying on the data then I don't see it being a one size fits all approach with regard to shielding... I don't think scientists are suggested that either.. Although it keeps being quoted in this thread? In saying that the paper for under 40s doesn't eliminate risk.. It just says its quite low and not significantly higher than a non-diabetic under 40... Nothing will eliminate it completely and there are still perfectly fit and healthy under 40s diabetic or not being made severely ill by covid... Received a text message in our football club WhatsApp from a member who is under 30 with no underlying health conditions. He's just been taken off a ventilator after 3 weeks. No need for complacency to set in in certain age groups due to the research/paper but at the same time everyday decisions need to be taken based on the science. [/QUOTE]
