It seems only yesterday that we were receiving our first Government text messages from the government telling us to self isolate and sheild but now it looks like the government is doing a u-turn on this measure.
I’m on immune suppression due to my solid state liver transplant and I can’t think of anything more ridiculous then suddenly throwing myself back into a world where the Covid 19 virus ? still lurks. We have not as yet got a vaccine and there are no guarantees that if you get this virus there won’t be long term health implications. Considering what people like me deal with on a daily basis we are hardly going to jump at a new possibility of risk.
So what does this mean? Well from a first glance it looks like those who receive a text will be taken off the Sheilding List and lose their delivery of a weekly food box. Some people will be ok. They have friends or neighbors who can step in to help. But others will not be so fortunate.
I had been drafting an article about the government food boxes when this article was sent to me and I still think they are worth writing about as for the first time in a long time it really seemed like someone in power was thinking outside the box. (No pun intended ?) A packet of Digestives, two rolls of loo roll, an eclectic selection of tins, alongside some fruit and veg are actually very reassuring in a time of crisis. Admittedly they hadn’t worked how that a chunk of vulnerable people were OAPs but fortunately locals and neighbors were stepping up to that plate, in epic ways until someone pointed out their oversight. It was a start in the right direction, but from today for many it looks like the support, minimal that it was has been taken away again.
Don’t get me wrong, one has to use some common sense on all of this. But England has seen one of the highest death tolls so funnily enough if the government who ignored warnings and let this happen are suddenly telling me it’s all ok, I’m not immediately going to open my door and jump back to what I will now consider a fairy tale reality I undoubtedly took for granted.
Covid 19 has changed the world in many ways, but for those of us who are vulnerable it has cemented in our mindset the care and caution we must insist on. If you are one of us, never ever feel bad that you decide not to go somewhere or rain check on this or that. Until the Coronavirus is no more, there can never be any certainty you won’t be accidentally put at risk. For me at least, one thing is certain. While I can, I will, for the safety of my family who are at risk, and myself, ‘stay home and stay safe’, because life is the safety of human life is too precious to put into any governments hands. Especially when they have one rule for their advisors and one for the rest of the population. #nonamesmentioned
