What are your thoughts and experiences of the above?
I am a teacher and my husband is over 70, immune suppressed and has COPD.
Many others, staff and students alike, must be in similar situations.
What are you doing? What is your school advising? Thank you.

I'm in the same situation. I have a vulnerable husband with hypertension and a heart disorder, my very frail mum with vascular dementia lives with us at 85, I have asthma, and an autoimmune condition.and ds has asthma. Currently still expected in to teach!

I am very worried.

It's awful isn't it. I am signed off sick until after Easter, so I am incredibly lucky. If I was at work I would be in a right state about it.

I'm in school and on the list. There is so much confusion. Do we socially isolate but still go to work where we are socially bombarded all day?

It is ludicrous. I'm looking at my emails from work and they seem to be carrying on as if nothing has changed. It's like they're in a parallel universe.
