And if a punter told you he'd had a vaccine, would you believe him?

No never, i would want proof too many lie to get what they want but it's a nice surprise when some are honest and do tell the truth.

No, I wouldn't trust him, and besides, the vaccine only reduces his risk of becoming seriously ill, and does not hinder his ability to catch the virus and pass it on to others.

My advice would be to wait until the summer, at least.

It's not rocket science. If you don't want to catch the virus, follow the guidelines and don't mix with anyone outside of your household. If you decide to ignore government guidelines and see clients, then you must accept that you are at a much greater risk of catching the virus.

Only you can decide what is best for you.

Hi Ryas. I'm playing it by ear. There's roughly 900 Covid cases per 100,000 in my area. I cannot continue to not work until the summer so I'm hoping that r figure will soon come down soon. I hope to go back by end of next month, maybe sooner. I might even go back in a couple of weeks' time.

Im ticking along fine, i only offer erotic massage though. Ill keep working as discreetly as i can. Ive stuck a piece of towel over my intercom speaker, tell them not to knock or speak whilst in the hall way or bathroom. Im lucky as im really only seeing regulars so i know theyre not fog horns with no sense of awareness.

 I refuse to end up dependent on the goverment for handouts or end up in debt. Id never work if i had symptoms or was sick (from any illness)but im not ill so im not gonna act like i am and end up financially ruined and homeless. This police state we are unfortunately living in isnt going away because theres a vaccine. Look out for yourself and use common sense when working.

Have you done sex work before, Ryas?

There are a lot of people entering the industry at the moment which is driven by job losses (I assume) but they are joining at a historically dangerous time.

As others have said, only you can make a decision based on your comfort level with the risks. You can decide not to offer kissing, you can try to only fuck in cowgirl and doggy, but realistically if you're breathing the same air in the same room as a client, you're very likely to catch anything they've got, from Covid to the common cold.

Well that's lovely, but without the SEISS grants I would likely have had to give up my work flat, especially since I'm not eligible for anything else. Everybody's financial situation is different and I'm sure those who have had to rely on universal credits and so on feel shit enough about it without having to read superior comments about 'handouts'.

I can't remember if I've posted about this previously, but if anybody wants to know whether they've had the virus (and Riyas, if you've been in central London for the last year or so there's a very good chance you have unless you've been shut away most of the time) the Superdrug antibody tests are back in stock now. Given that a big chunk of people have no symptoms, they're handy if you're not sure :).

The covid help literally saved me and I'm very grateful to the British government for helping me out. I'm not ashamed one bit by it. This was a pandemic, a natural catastrophe that hit us and we had absolutely no power over it.  It's not like you were partying for six months and one day got evicted. Everyone has gotten help, from pubs to airlines. Nothing to be ashamed by receving financial help.

I don't think Lilith meant it to read negatively on other people claiming financial support.

I didn’t mean it negatively either by agreeing with Lilith, I just meant if anyone wants to work at the moment but was worried about being able to do so without hassle, it can be done discreetly because I have been doing it.

Thanks for that Amy, I didn't know they were doing them. I had a test a few months ago via Bupa but I'm sure Superdrug are a lot cheaper!
