I want the government to do this as Boris Johnson states no one would be penalised for doing the right thing, currently my mother in law is having to stay at home for the next 12 weeks. (as requested by the NHS) This is because she has COPD, a lung condition that makes her a vulnerable person. Currently she is only entitled to statutory sick pay. She cannot manage on this small amount of money and i feel this is a great injustice considering all the help on offer for all other members of society
