Cover for people at risk from covid
People with respiratory issues or compromised immune systems may not be on the "shield list" or fit the legal definition of disabled but are still very much at risk of Westminster drops the furlough scheme, can the Scottish government please give these vulnerable people consideration as this may be life and death for them.
Why the contribution is important
People who are at risk from covid complications need help from the Scottish government if Westminster abandons the furlough scheme as they are threatening to do.

I was also told at start of this that i was high risk and to shield by dr, now i'm told i am high risk but not exremely high risk, this dr thought i should shield but government guidelines now say only extreme conditions to shield.
Very very confusing, do i stop shielding and go back to work knowing if i pick up the virus it could be fatal?

There does need to be more protection for people like us who are more likely to become seriously ill from this virus.. Especially when you factor in how many people think like villager1 above who dismiss out health and Concerns out of hand
