Hi, I'm new to the forum and like many others i'm looking for advice on the current situation regarding coronavirus and diabetes.
Apologies if this has already been covered. I'm type 1 and a health care worker in elderly care. I've been searching for advice and guidance and the general advice is that you can continue to work while following social distancing measures. Obviously this is not possible in this line of work, being in very close contact with both staff and residents. I realise that everyones situation is different but i'm wondering what others in this situation are doing to stay safe.
 
Hi @Spuddle

Welcome to forum. This is causing real concern for many in roles similar to yours.

It has been discussed a few times, most recently HERE
