Thank you Paul. But if we don’t get any letter from the government to say you are vulnerable, it make it difficult not to go to work (not all working place understand).

[Paul_Howard Partner LUPUS UK in reply to Sezvic]

Hi Sezvic . I understand this. If you believe you should be in the "clinically extremely vulnerable" group, but don't receive a letter then you should contact your GP to discuss this and check whether you are attributed to the correct risk group.
