As @denislawsbackheel has said, they would fall in the high-risk group with me and many others, unfortunately. I am not sure of the severity of the allergies and whether stopping the course would make sense if the area where they live is confirmed to have infections (sometimes those types of courses can’t really be stopped once started without significant problems and I also recently met someone with such severe allergies that they get debilitating migraines without maintenance treatments). That is something their treatment specialist would really need to assess in the context of the potential risk at that time.A family member is on immunosuppressant drugs for allergies at the moment, just started a 6 month course, not a great time, and not really getting much advice from our medical professionals as to the potential consequences should they fall foul of the virus
All you can do is take official guidance seriously, take reasonable precautions to avoid contraction/transmission, and look out for your family member’s general health and wellbeing.
Oh, and keep a sense of humour. ;-)
