Dear members,

We are working hard to try to clarify the latest Covid-19 guidance for liver patients.

Please see our website and do keep checking for updated information. We would also suggest to discuss your own level of risk with your medical teams.

If it helps, I have copy pasted part of an email I received from DHSC on Wednesday below:

"You should stay at home as much as possible but are encouraged to go outdoors for exercising and attending health appointments. You are strongly advised to work from home. If you cannot work from home, then you should not attend work. You may be eligible for the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (furlough). This letter is a formal shielding notification and can act as evidence for your employer to show that you cannot work outside your home until 2 December, including for statutory sick pay (SSP) purposes."

Stay positive, never submit to fear!
