New Advert

[walchesterweasel]

Has the advice changed ?
It says , in case my upload fails, 'Do not go out, even to buy food or essentials. Stay at home to exercise ' . It's on Radio Times web site , each side of the schedule

I didn’t get the impression anything had changed to that severity from the briefing this afternoon.

That is, however, very clear!

Do you think it means just Radio Times readers?

The NHS advice keeps changing, and they don't tell us it's changed, so anything is possible!

However the above does seem a bit odd....

Fake news/spam type thing?

Just went to RT website and got ads def targeted to me - stuff I've looked at etc - any chance it could be targeted to you? Are you in the shielding category?

Well that’s not the official line is it? Wonder where they have got that from...! No one will pay a blind bit of notice if they said that. Everyone would be jogging to Tesco for “essentials”.

Haven't had a letter but in the 'flu jab category so maybe targeted. It does strike a completely different tone though !

do not go out for food or essentials in other words stay at home, starve to death, and that will save everyone a lot of hassle....I mean it has merit

Wonder if it could be targeted. Quite impressive if it is. Although a bit insensitive in a way, people shielding might not need that highlighted all the time e.g. when browsing online, sure they are quite aware of their status

Thats the rules if youve got symptoms isnt it?

@Kez200 yes but it doesn't say "if you've got symptoms". Maybe someone forgot to include that line....
