These weren’t included in Boris’s list but are things affecting me currently:

Car due for mot Friday (need to wait til then for pay day). Need it to get to my essential job.

Hermes/other courier deliveries - I’ve sent loads of stuff this weekend that I sold on EBay. Non essential. Old baby toys. They’re waiting to be delivered to my buyers. Will they still be delivered or should I start refunding?

Oh here we go, you live in a flat with no garden.......

No, we have a small garden. But again, the children etc. And the neighbours chatting to me (I'm not joking, we have very low fences and chat often).

My dd has SEND and is very attached to me. I've said this on other threads, but I can easily run from my house to places where I don't see another living soul. So zero interaction. I don't touch anything.

The NHS thinks it is important enough for me to continue. But not people on MN who apparently aren't able to apply critical thinking and risk assessment.

By the way I love with two people who are high risk (chronic asthma) and my father has COPD so I am well aware of the risks.

@callmeadoctor

I wish somebody would.

Risk to life of not leaving your home to "exercise" 0%

Not true, people die in their homes every day. Running up and down the stairs is for an hour is probably statistically quite dangerous. Certainly more likely to lead to death or injury than running around an empty field.
