Only older?

Well Dee1012 how very kind of the grocer.
I`m sure most people will show their kindness to others at this moment in time no matter what their situation is.
You clearly would as will i and many Gransnetters will too i`m sure.
Were good at pulling together in this country at times like this.

No of course you are not being unfeeling - the complete opposite actually.! I think some good hearted well meaning people are trying to "do their bit" for those who are disadvantaged because of age only. Those younger people with underlying health conditions/disabled etc. are generally assisted by organisations who presumably will be pulling out all the stops to help them but the "ordinary" older person seems at this point in time to be sort of left to the mercy of their own devices and any kindness shown by anyone will be very appreciated in my view even if it isn't politically correct in this day and age. I'm probably going to be "shot down in flames" for having this viewpoint but hey ho - that's just life on gransnet ain't it

I wonder how the retailer would know if younger people do, in fact, have underlying health conditions?

Some will be obvious others will have correspondence from DWP or hospitals etc hopefully.
