how long isolation ????

5 years ago•8 Replies

I suffer from COPD need oxygen when I move around, also AF and type 2 diabetes, I was told 4 weeks ago I need to self isolate for 12 weeks which I expected, I now receive a letter from my local hospital Respiratory dept saying I have been identified as a person of great risk with the Coronavirus pandemic, and they say I have to self isolate for 12 weeks from today, I have already done 4 weeks, do I have to do another 12 weeks or just 8 weeks totally confused.

I hope everybody keeps safe and well best wishes to all Bevanboy

Call the hospital and double check and explain to them what you have been doing and where you was informed that you need to be isolation from

Hi Kamilla22 thanks for your reply, I have I told them that I got a text and a letter from the NHS , they said I need to do another 12 weeks bringing the total to 16 weeks isolation, they said it is better to do 16 weeks than to end up in intensive care with corvid19 which would be really serious for me. I suppose they are right, the number of people who have passed away is so sad, so I should not moan. Take care keep safe best wishes Bevanboy

I was told 12 weeks shielding, but I'm never going out again, I was housebound before Coronavirus and I will still be housebound after. Nothing to do with the virus, more to do with not being able to stand or walk.

I read this as another 8 weeks but I would ring the hospital to check.

Was it the mining that gave you the COPD? When celebrating the armed services on 11th Nov., no one mentions the Bevan Boys who were conscripted into the coal mines. If you asked 100 people what the Bevan Boys were, I doubt 5 could answer correctly.
