Is anyone else confused about the news that asthmatics have been removed from the shielding list. I got my letter from the GP back in March. But am I now to believe that I should be going back to work? Not heard anything from my GP.

I never received a letter but a Nurse Practitioner told me to self-isolate. I am due to return to work on the 14th June but that an announcement is to be made on 13th June which might change this. I work in a large supermarket and protective measures are not good enough, so I am apprehensive about returning. My asthma is under control and I would like it to stay that way, I have other health issues and am 63, so I have been really careful
