    With what my son has , he definitely needed his letter.
    when it first started it went on the drugs they had to use, he is on all three that met the criteria.

    It also went on whether you were eligible for the flu shot, which diabetics are. The WHO are still saying diabetics are, but the government have dropped them off the list.

    No, the conditions still make you vulnerable, but there are now three categories.
    1 General population
    2 Vulnerable (including diabetics, asthmatics etc.)
    3 At highest risk - the immune suppressed, transplant recipients etc.
    Only category 3 are receiving shielding letters.

    I'm a 2, could argue for 3, but don't need the extra help so won't rock the boat.

    That was not the first impression as our practice sent in the names including diabetics and until this week said they were still waiting for them to come. It is only now they have received a revised list. The WHO still say that some on group two should be isolating @seacrows

    Shouldn't the no. 10 cat be in quarantine?

    Probably going round shaking paws with any coughing cats it finds. 

    On second thought, I’m sure the cat has more sense.

    Is it that some are on the 'Vulnerable' list, but not all of them reach the criteria for 'Shielding'?
