Shielding in Wales extended

Have just read that Wales is extending the advice to extremely vulnerable to shield until the middle of August.

Have they changed the criteria of “extremely vulnerable “ ?

Does anyone else think Scotland will follow ?

Scotland have just given out their guidance for Shielding until July 31st ...in England our useless PM has not made us mind up yet 🤷‍♀️

At the moment it’s 30th June although some patients have received notification from their Oncologists to shield until 12/15th July so my guess is 31st July. 🤔

Thanks for insight it’s really difficult to plan but tbh my OH and myself are safe and content at home.
