Prescriptions
Would it be possible to register your nearest pharmacy with your doctor and have repeat prescriptions sent electronically to them. You could then receive a text or email with an appointment time to collect. It would help pharmacists with social distancing and also reduce the need for paper prescriptions in circulation.
Why the contribution is important
Less social contact for vulnerable groups. Patients not having to unnecessarily visit surgeries means less chance of transmission and
Pharmacy staff can stagger appointments.

In particular all repeat prescriptions should be handled electronically.
Some GPs/pharmacies choose not to do this.
Instead of high at-risk groups having to go to pharmacies, a delivery service should also be standard.
