[QUOTE="Starxgirl, post: 2267573, member: 521268"] I requested a letter as work, for some reason now after being off nearly for 12 weeks were wanting nhs letter or GP letter. Work had told me I could take 12 weeks as diabetics were in vulnerable group on there list. I called never got talking to my GP it was the receptionist who said she would give me a covid - 19 letter but wont include being listed as high risk It arrived today the letter it talked about high risk and shielding, then said but with your health record we do not think your high risk but classed as moderate risk and follow social isolation protocols Stay at home, outside for food, health and work reasons only, 2 metres apart from other people, wash hands, dont meet others even friends or family. If your unable to work from home or feel your job puts you at higher risk of infection we advise that you have a discussion with your employer but at this time we cannot exempt you from work completely on medical grounds at this time.
