    no fortunately not I have been isolating for 7 weeks now though haven't been past my gate as I received a letter telling me I was at high risk due to my medications

    I have been shopping online and my husband has been collecting and I am fortunate enough to have a very supportive family and I have been able to work from home

    Stay safe & well

      It seems its not necessarily the disease which causes the problems with covid-19 but the medication you are taking for it,, I am thankfully not taking any meds although I was diagnosed with RA 15 + years ago

      Best thing we can do is stay in just incase,, eventually they will get a safe vaccine and life will get back to normal 😂
