ARVC covid risk

[phantom-]

I have mild ARVC and had a subcutaneous ICD fitted just over a yr ago as a precaution. I don't really suffer any symptoms and still lead a healthy lifestyle. I cannot find any guidance as to whether I am considered to ve in an at risk group. Does anyone know?

I would say you are in the "high risk" rather than "particularly high risk" group. It is explained in more detail here:

If you have any doubts please ring your GP to clarify.

Like many others asking if they are at risk. I believe that we are all at risk and should take precautions as instructed. The level of risk is if you contracted the virus how you may react

Covid effects people differently. I’m pretty sure my entire family got it last December. Since then we found out someone we were with had it around that time. The time line adds up but we were told it was a big going around and they gave us a steroid cocktail. I have ARVC and it did not mess with that much besides having was seemed like an upper respiratory problem.
