Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that the advice provided on shielding is the same on both the Gov.uk and the NHS information websites.
We are working across organisations to ensure a harmonised approach so that all forms of guidance and advice on shielding, both online and sent by letter to patients are consistent and up to date.
Those who are clinically extremely vulnerable should continue to follow the updated guidance at the following link:
