So many people seem to think the risk of Covid-19 is over, but it’s not.
Social distancing is still enforced, (1 metres plus),masks must be warn on public transport, in hospitals and shops. Personally I think they should be mandatory in offices and should have been made compulsory back in March when lockdown was introduced.
Having been shielding for 4 months I formed a support bubble a few weeks ago with my parents but having been there for 2 nights last week and a contacts husband since testing positive it’s made me think I’m not ready to spend nights away yet.
Last week I had an appointment with Immunology who said whilst they were happy for me to end shielding they did ask me to be very careful and if it’s a choice between a shop and a walk then opt for the walk.
Quite honestly it scares me how relaxed so many people are being. Not social distancing, not believing there’s a risk, basically not being careful.
After the air bridge with Spain was closed and people now have to quarantine for 2 weeks upon returning there has been a lot of complaining. Personally I think anything to prevent the UKs infection rate from rising is a good thing although I do understand why it’s frustrating for people but anything to help stop rates and deaths rising is overall worth it.
So I will still be self isolating as much as possible to reduce the infection risk!!
