People Who Are Shielding
38 Answers
As one of those who comes under this category, I'm not sure what the rules are. Originally I thought I could go out as from June 25th, this would have been 12 weeks since I received the letter,and now Boris has been talking about the 'bubble' as from this weekend but then it says, 'This does not apply to people who are shielding' but it doesn't say when this will apply. I am desperate to go and see my new baby granddaughter but I have no idea when that will be.Would my GP know?

"This guidance is still advisory. You will not be fined or sanctioned if you prefer to follow the guidance on staying alert and safe (social distancing). You may also choose to remain in your own home at all times if you do not feel comfortable with any form of contact with others. However, careful time outside in the fresh air is likely to make you feel better in yourself."

Danny have you got a link to that info? The info that Patsy's link says too early for people who are shielding.
woodgang I'm not sure about them coming to me as my daughter might not be taking the chance of bringing baby out just yet as she is only 8 days old.
Do you think it would be worth asking my GP? I have a telephone consultation booked for Monday to discuss some new medication I'm on, would it be worth asking her as she knows what my underlying illness's are and whether they are not that bad.

The Government website has the following section: https:/ /www.go v.uk/gu idance/ meeting -people -from-o utside- your-ho usehold
"If you are clinically extremely vulnerable (shielding)
Unfortunately, we cannot advise anyone who is shielding to form a support bubble at this stage. However, we know how hard it is for people who are shielding and have been keeping this advice under close review. We will be setting out further advice for this specific group next week, now that the peak of the pandemic is past.
Those who are shielding are still advised to maintain strict social distancing and stay 2 metres apart from others – including those they live with".

//single adult households – in other words adults who live alone or with dependent children only – can form a ‘support bubble’ with one other household. All those in a support bubble will be able to spend time together inside each others’ homes, including overnight, without needing to stay 2 metres apart//
