[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 2243929, member: 100904"] I had the texts last week. Letter yesterday. Letter is confusing in that it states I am ‘[B]at risk of severe illness if you catch Coronavirus. This is based information that is held on your GP records[/B]’. It goes on to tell me to stay at home , avoid all contact with others, except carers for 12 weeks from day letter is received. If I have nobody to collect food and medications or provide other care I should register as extremely vulnerable. It does not specify just what the information is that placed me in the shielding group, so I am just guessing that it is the medication I have to suppress my immune system, as I have frequent allergic reactions, which cause breathing problems. The only way I could find out would be to ask GP, but as they will have other priorities right now, I am just going to take notice, and have already been isolated for last 2 weeks. [/QUOTE]
