I've been self isolating and my cars not moved only started and let run for a few minutes.

A car battery should last around a couple of months, potentially longer, before dying, if not used.

That's the whole point of the stay at home, protect the NHS, save lives, message. Put too much strain on the NHS and it will cost lives.
