What does Lockdown mean to you?
My interpretation of this is that you only leave your house if you absolutely have to for the purpose of getting essential food supplies, going to work as a key worker or for the purpose of exercise whilst abiding the social distancing rules.
It’s not going for unnecessary drives to the country for long dog walks or social calls to others houses because they don’t have any symptoms.
The whole point is to contain any likely spread which you may do before you start showing signs. Who knows how many places you’ve left a dose of Covid19 for others to pick up.
I think it’s irresponsible and selfish that some people think they’re above the rules.
The Vulnerable
This group containing the over 70’s age group, people with underlying illnesses and pregnant people should be particularly careful.
My mum falls into the over 70’s and has health conditions as does my stepdad who is also currently having chemotherapy, but my mum is still asking my sister to do food deliveries several times a week which is Non-Essential just to ‘break up the day’.
I know the guidelines of 12 weeks is a long time but the alternative doesn’t bare thinking about.
It’s better to be safe than sorry so stay at home, binge watch a few box sets, make plans for when this is over, sit and have a coffee in YOUR garden or take part in the endless online stuff that’s available for literally everything you can think of…….
