Extremely Clinically Vulnerable

I got a email today saying that following research I am now on the Extremely Clinically Vulnerable List. Last March I was on this list but was demoted to the Clinically Vulnerable one. Did my amputation win me promotion? 🤣

Anybody else have this email?

Oh dear Michael, you don't do things by half do you? I think you must start being a bit of a diva throw a tantrum and demand answers. Take care and keep safe. Ruth

Someone told me it was a rather extreme way of getting a Blue Badge!

Yea I got the same NHS email, bit late now though as I’ve just recovered from COVID

I queried that around last April but was told I was not on the list as I didn't have one of the conditions. Like you I think multiple conditions should have been obvious. Boris, MichaelJH Diva is avalable for common sense guidance!

You might have to explain to him what ‘common sense’ is!

That would be challenging because of his attention span!

Yes I received one of those too, and I think Thatwasunexpected (lovely name that) has the correct explanation, shielding until 31 March now, not that it makes much difference!

Yes I got one of those too. Been going round unsheilding since start of lockdown as didn't get one of these before so I'm not sure if shielding now for a month and a half makes a lot of sense.

I got the letter on Tuesday to shield until the end of March, won't make much difference to me. I've been very careful since last summer!

I got a letter from the Scottish NHS to say I was on the shielding list but it doesn't mean I have to shield 🤔, I have been upgraded since last year I wasn't on any list char

I got the impression I was demoted last April was because I was not pregnant. I trust I was promoted because of multiple conditions and will not have to take a pregnancy test! 🤰 😱 🙄
