It wasn’t compulsory last time was it?

Nothing has changed re. the R number ,so it’s best to continue doing what is sensible , safe and comfy for you. Xx

Hi jody00, can i ask if you are in Scotland or England and got a shielding letter ? Not all GP's have the opinion that patients with ET should shield. Again ive had to go through the stress of phoning GP only to be told I'm NOT in the shielding category with ET. Why are they not all on the same page with this ? Stay safe 🙂
