Good, seems sensible! She's 94 in April so it would not be good for her to catch it.

But according to the government it is perfectly safe for old folk to still be going out to busy public places

Plenty of them out and about today in packed cafes, restaurants, shops etc.

Loppy, I have not seen anywhere say that it's "perfectly safe" for over 70s to be out and about this week. It's been said .. plenty ..that it's better for them to be cocooned up somewhere.
But I think that a lot of the older folk out there are either in denial or defiant that they've survived worse etc so aren't changing their habits. Maybe they aren't scared of death 🤷🏽‍♀️
