Are we high risk to infections

[Pippa76]

Morning, hope your all looking after yourselfs...

I have recently been told I am b12 deficient I have only had one loading injection I have now gone three weeks without one I meant to have one a week for 5wks but it's been a nightmare trying to book appointments. I was meant to have one thursday just gone.

I had to cancel as I developed a cough of and I work in a hospital doing cleaning.i have had to self isolate at home....

I have only been back at work for 3wks as I had shingle's before this ..

My work don't understand about being B12 deficient am i right that i could be more prone to picking up infections because it's to do with our red blood cells just so frustrating they think it's to do with diet only.

They put me at risk i have been cleaning the coronavirus pod at hospital i was not fit tested before i was trained by my supervisor apparently other staff was..

Anyone else have any advice or experience of working in health care or at risk environments .x
