    I'm looking to a apprenticeship but I'm not sure if I should wait to out until things get back to normal with how everything is with covid-19. I'm on
    Immunosuppressants from a transplant.
    I'm nearly 30 so I would like to start as soon as possible but still worried about Covid 19

    Part of me is thinking to start and the other is thinking just wait it out but who knows how long that would be.
    I'm working from home in my current role.

    I'd wait until the vaccine has been rolled out to tbh. A few more months isn't going to matter too much at this stage.

    Could be another year aswell, would it not be harder to get into a apprenticeship the older you are? Dont understand how they can keep sites open with so many people working on top of each other.

    Have you actually been offered a specific apprenticeship? It's hard to see how any employer could justify having an immunosuppressed person in any type of workplace at the moment.
