Shielding

When the government says that it is not asking the extremely vulnerable to shield this time, should we assume that's because they don't want to organise/pay for food parcels this time round, or is that too cynical?

I think those that are vulnerable have already sorted their own support and have continued to be extremely careful throughout the summer. We have to remember their mental health so many have formed a social bubble.

Bit tricky for the over 60s - they are supposed to shield but now can't claim pensions til 66 so what are they supposed to do re work?
