Getting blood out of a stone

OK so I have treated hypertension and mild thickening of my left ventricle due to the bp problem not being diagnosed straight away which doctors tend to dismiss.I am also a counsellor in a school.Should I be isolating or not? Well the press conference yesterday gave me no clue...very vague so I tried my GP whose receptionist passed the buck to 111 who only have capacity to talk to those who are currently suffering.Come on guys...give us some clarity here.

She's the most unhelpful receptionist ever.I also have a query about my meds so I rang back.She just said email but didn't even say the address which was difficult to find.I have emailed and asked about this.Hopefully I'll get a reply.🤨

Well I don't really agree there but hopefully I'll hear back from the GP soon just to confirm.
