Bcg and coronavirus

Hi my hubby is due for his 1st ever BCG next Wednesday and our nurse said he obviously has to self isolate as well as myself for the duration 6 week course, my question is as I'm not entirely sure, can I go to a supermarket for essentials etc. as trying to get delivery is proving impossible even with being on the vulnerable list, or does it mean not at all, sorry for being maybe a little non informed at this point. Kathy. Xx

  • I hope this information we have about coronavirus and cancer will help answer your questions Kathy but you're welcome to give our cancer nurses a call about this on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    You can also find the latest guidelines and up to date information about self isolating and shielding on the gov.uk website.

    I hope this helps and that all goes well with your husband's first BCG treatment next week.

    Kind regards,
