Is it realistic to expect over 70s to remain in their homes for 4 months?All in favour of restricting contact with others as I don't want to be a burden on NHS ( or hubby) - I will send my 69 year old Toy Boy to the shops. However, we should be encouraging exercise in the fresh air - walking but not stopping in tea shops; social golf while keeping a distance and no lingering in the 19th hole. We need to lobby for sensible restrictions and practical ideas to help those who live alone, without a network of family or close friends. Many of those will already be depressed by the shutting down of social interaction which they may rely upon to dispel loneliness - hear local U3A is suspended .
