Stroma take on working during covid 19

I know there are alot of threads on the corona virus but this is an email i received from stroma, it might help some of you decide about your personal work situations

I have a heart condition and live with grandchildren and looking at that risk matrix I wimped out three weeks ago and stayed home.

That is not wimping out, that is just being perfectly sensible in your situation!

Until the immunity testing is properly rolled out to confirm who has , and hasn’t yet had covid19 is is completely irresponsible to carry on as normal.
Within 2 weeks these tests should be generally available which will be a game changer

Hang on a minute. First I cannot accept Stroma/Napit as a guide to work re coronavirus. First they are not competent, second they are a CPS scheme! I just about listen to the gov.uk Lets pan back a second in the best RAMS tradition. Is there a risk? Yes. Who could get harmed and how? Myself and customers as well as innocent bystanders. What could be the harm? Potentially death! What am I going to do about that risk? NOT GO OUT. I can actually figure that out for myself, I certainly don't need stroma and his cousins and uncles telling me how to manage risk. Encouraging people to go out to others homes for non essential work, and saying "yeh it's ok" is all very well, but what if it goes all pearshaped? Risk of death anyone? Weston beach is crowded today a lot of people enjoying the spring sun. Am I missing something here? Am I a fool staying at home? Well it's simple for me if there is a 0.002 risk of dropping dead, I am no way taking that risk.

Agree. Must admit in the last couple of days I’ve seen more oap’s and couch potatoes out and about in public spaces than would normally..,. and this is out in the sticks where they probably have to space to get out in their own back yards. The go out for exercise statement is unnecessary ., you can get that during your essential shop. If you’re not capable of shopping then I suspect that you are vulnerable and in need of support to stay isolated.
