Have nhs staff been given a covering letter, stating their essential status?

I have just received one from work, and I can't help but wonder if its in preparation for tighter controls?

Could be to assist in the supermarkets etc for priority shopping?

Yes, it mentions that, along with other things.

Well, will have to wait and see, I suppose. The main thing is that it gives my name, and details on how to check my identity.

I just keep my NHS ID card on me but my husband has to drive me to and from work so my practice manager gave him a note incase he gets stopped.

Thank you.
I suppose companies are trying to cover all eventualities.

I'm imagining conspiracies and cover ups.

I should go and paint the bathroom ceiling instead, I think.
