    By allowing somebody into your home to do a job, you're helping to keep another household financially viable. By inviting your grandma over for a cup of tea, you're not. Sorry to go against the grain, but it really is that simple.

        It’s really mental the logic they have used. As you said tradesman could visit 5 houses a week with 4 people in each, all of who are now doing unlimited exercise or working. Grandparents still shielding have met nobody? Risk of contamination

        But also increasing the chance of bringing covid19 into your home from the previous house. The cleaner then goes on to spread it to the next one. Clean your own house 🤷🏻‍♂️

        It really is so simple, unless you're simple.

        The plumber will basically be saying, 'I'll do the job but you keep well away from me and I'll only work in a well ventilated space.' With granny, you'll be sitting with her for a couple of hours having a cosy chat. Precisely the conditions in which the virus spreads.

        That doesn't make it safe, or sane to do so.

        What if you employ your grandmother as a cleaner?
