How "exposed" are you?

It's just occurred to me that as a family we are incredibly exposed.

5yo and 7yo are in different bubbles of 120 kids per bubble and 2yo goes to nursery (no official bubble but there are 25 kids in her room when she attends). We also do weekly physio for the 2yo (its a group session so exposure to another 6 people) plus weekly swimming lessons (people are socially distanced but there are still a good 30 people in a poorly ventilated area)

My MIL provides childcare a few days a week (so more exposure there) and I've just had the sudden death of my mother and her funeral to deal with so I've been mixing households with my dad and siblings. We can cut back on this now we've had the funeral but I want to be around my family whilst we grieve and come to terms with our loss.

I know I am probably nowhere near as exposed as some but writing it down, I feel very scared.

(I'm tier 2, a London Borough that has 106 per 100k but relatively low death rates!)

Very low. WFH and live by myself, and live in a smallish town in a Tier one area. As a result, I feel I can do things like invite friends to stay, do an exercise class and evening class, and even go to the theatre in the big city. All of those activities are conducted with social distancing in place, but definitely add to my risk - they also, however, improve my mental health - no point being very safe but very unhappy.
