Would you do this?

I would have apologised and said no...
Neighbour should get a taxi. Your husband is very vulnerable having had covid already. ..you should cancel and say he cannot do it.

It's very good of your husband to take him
Fanny.
I would do it (and wear a woolly hat and scarf in the car). I would probably worry a little but do it anyway.

Thank you very much Calendargirl, that is very kind of you.
He has recently had breathing tests and a heart scan.
He's got his first appointment at the post-Covid respiratory clinic this week. So fingers crossed his results will be good.
And also that he will be able to start taking his RA medication again.
It's been so complicated ?
Hopefully things will get sorted soon.
Thank you again

I remember from previous posts that your DH has not been in good health lately Fanny, so it’s good that he is obviously much better now.

My husband took someone to hospital recently. Windows open, person sat in back with mask, husband driving with mask on. Person had to go to appointment alone anyway. Hand gel used on both getting out, then getting back into car. They had both had only one vaccination each at that time and thankfully all was fine.

Thanks fanny I was trying so hard to be good on that thread. I had to sit on my hands.

I would have done the same

He sounds lovely and helpful. You both do.

I'd be perfectly happy for my husband to do this for a neighbour.

Masks as has been mentioned and nice job to help out a neighbour in need.

He can probably operate a phone without spelling mistakes for example.

You do make me laugh! ?
(You were really funny on the thread about men too)

It sounds as though you volunteered your dh to drive, I wouldn't like to be volunteered for something by someone else, that's all. But your dh is probably very different to me, fir which I am sure you are grateful

Oh no. I definitely didn't volunteer him. He would definitely, definitely have said yes.
Thinking back - I did check with him while neighbour was on the doorstep.
There is no way he'd say no.
He'd do anything for anyone.

I would probably volunteer my husband without a second thought, but I would be absolutely fuming if he volunteered me!

Volunteer drivers have been taking people to and from hospital throughout the pandemic. The risk is very low now in your circumstances and I would do it without worrying.

If the car windows are open and they wear masks I can't see any more risk than sitting at a table in a pub garden where you need to remove your mask in order to drink.
One point, don't be shy of reminding the elderly person that their mask needs to cover their nose - so many are wandering around with their mask over their mouth only.

I would have done the same, can’t really see a problem
We need to try to get back to normality.

I've travelled in a few taxis lately which I think is a much higher risk, so this is really no risk. Both wear masks, windows open, passenger sit at the back instead of the front, wash hands afterwards. Life goes on!

Thank you Galaxy - sorry, I don't understand the last bit

I dont think it matters what I or anyone would have done, it matters that you are comfortable with. I wouldnt volunteer soneone else or a job though but that's nothing to do with covid.
