In reply to the discussion: New CDC guidance says older adults should 'stay at home as much as possible' due to coronavirus [View all]llmart
(15,536 posts)4. I live in a mostly senior community.
A lot of the seniors have doctor's appointments for various ailments every single week. Are doctors going to start making housecalls?
Also, anyone over 60? 60 seems a bit young to me to ask them to stay home. If they're immuno-compromised maybe, but many 60-year olds still work full time.
