Hi Auntiesncoats and welcome to the Online Community.
It is no wonder that you are worried in such distressing times. Getting through to doctors and rheumatologist departments is proving very difficult for almost everyone.
We have a page on COVID-19 - assessing your risk and we strongly recommend you follow this guidance if you’re in one of the high-risk groups.
Please note: If you are in the ‘extremely vulnerable’ group, you'll soon be able to ask for help getting deliveries of essential supplies like food and medicine. In England, you can register for this help on the gov.uk website. There's separate advice for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
If you’re not sure whether your medical condition makes you ‘extremely vulnerable’, register anyway.
I understand letters are still going out: you can read here the experience of one of our moderators who has posted to the Food parcels for ‘extremely vulnerable’ discussion of how she fared with registration.
Above all, our *Latest advice* is for everyone is to stay at home and only go outside for food, health reasons or essential work.
Stay safe, stay well.
Brynmor
