For bringing a senior on a wheelchair to the hospital for a medical appointment, can a family member and a helper come along? This two pax rule may be challenging to abide.

Star,
I empathize yr situation.

I wld expect the authorities to extend special exception esp with managing elderly. I know how difficult it can be to manage wheelchair, booking tpt, and carrying food/medication. I cldnt handle my mum when she had a stroke as when I was alone trying to carry her over to a chair, I almost ‘dropped’ her due to dead-weight. She was much, much skinner than I was then. Only challenge wld be whether taxi drivers will be worried ‘breaching’ rules or extend the u’stand’g. I wonder if a written letter fr an MP or a GP, (I’m just looking for community help) to pull weight for those managing elderly going out.

I went to SS yesterday, not because I \"rushed\" there - it was my regular shopping day. I was early enough that there was no queue yet, but by the time I left, there was a queue of 20+ outside! Everything looked very normal while I was there, but I don't know what might have happened later. I think most people are not panicking this time, but some will be stocking up food because they need to cook more in the coming weeks.
