Hi there. I received a text this morning from NHS saying that I could open a window but couldn't go outside my property. It also said I couldn't take my rubbish out. I have already been in the house for 3 weeks but am I to understand that I can't even go on my garden now? Have you or do you know of anyone else who has had this text. I am now feeling as if I am in prison?

Heard nothing. I think we are working towards herd immunity, so everyone needs to have COVID. Can’t get any more test kits!

I was recently diagnosed with emphysema only a small amount on my right lung due to smoking, i quit smoking eat healthy excersize, I’m full vaccinated had 4 vaccinations, unfortunately I contracted covid 19, I had it very mild indeed, was like a cold, I urge people to get vaccinated as I believe it’s had an important part of me staying healthy.

Hi, what reasons were you given to remain indoors?, it's not something you can do for ever.

I haven't received anything yet on Coronavirus, from the NHS, and yet I have a really weak immune system, and suffer with many illnesses including Copd emphysema, and I am still waiting for physio at home for my Copd but was told there is a waiting list, so it's been 3 months now but when you reach the age of 70 nobody bothers anymore.
