My partner and I don't live together (please don't start a debate on this Wink) I'm looking at going into a social isolation situation partly due to being self employed. I don't think I'll have clients after this week Sad. I'm also concerned for my asthmatic teen and my dad who has a lung condition.
My partner is doing essential work coming into contact with lots of people. Not health so no PPE other than gloves.
I think I might have to tell him to stay away. That could be months. I just think having him over would negate the whole social isolation effort.
I know its my decision at the end of the day. I'm just wondering if I'm overreacting.

I'm a GP. I'm seeing my partner daily. We are going to take each day as it comes. If I get unwell I will isolate with him.

I think if we isolated together we'd have to hide anything that could be weaponised Grin
