... and told me to shield!!
He said I might not have received a letter yet (I haven't) but that I will very shortly and I should be shielding!
I'm asthmatic, but I thought I was in the 'vulnerable' catagory when looking at the criteria released by asthma.org a few weeks ago, rather than shielding catagory. I'm on Fostair 100/6 twice a day and have had one course of steroids in the last 12 months. Also use salbutemol as needed.
Fortunately I haven't been out of the house for 6 weeks now anyway! We are lucky we have a large garden and have been sticking to that (and no children to consider)... has anyone else been told this after several weeks lockdown??
