I have now been added to the shielding list?♀️ I have my second vaccination 26 April. I have throughout this pandemic religiously followed the guidelines face/hand/distancing etc. I am aged 67 and I have heart disease (I had just one stent placed early in 2019) and am diabetic 1 (I was actually diagnosed with diabetes 1 during first lockdown and put on Metformin medication) I am overweight and I am guessing by my postcode I am seen as living in a deprived area! I don’t however see myself as deprived! ? Granted I don’t live in the countryside or a small village and I live within the heart of busy London (the concrete jungle lol ). I am puzzled as to why now I have been placed on this list when since the beginning of this pandemic I have managed to survive. I do bits of shopping also for my 89 year old mum who has mild dementia but who is otherwise good for her age. It states I cannot go out to do shopping or collect my medication for my heart & Diabetes etc. Has anyone else suddenly been added to this shielding list after all this time. You also get added to this list regardless whether you have had the vaccinations or not.
4 Years On…..Health-wise, Has Anything Changed?
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
