Boris Has It ...

[andyb]

But hang on... E, F & G are the ones that are good to work... because they have the antibodies... and the patients they are treating already have the virus, otherwise they wouldn't be patients.

Some of A, B, C & D almost certainly already have the virus, as the tests were done 3 days ago and they've been working with E, F & G and we know that it spreads very easily.

Might be best to quarantine A, B, C & D and retest them every day for the next week... to see who hasn't got the virus. Any that do have it can work alongside E, F & G ??

It's complicated...

I can't belive you posted this without reading what you've actually put. Either that or you're just trolling.
You're saying that in your world if a doctor shows symptons of covid-19 and tests positive then he should be allowed back into the hospital and those that test negative should be made to stay at home.

I work in a carehome, and speaking for the carers a test to see if one has the virus or not, would be invaluable.

However, would the test be need to be taken at the start of the working week, or when finishing for the day or if you were feeling under the weather? Personally, if I was to wake up tomorrow morning with flu symptoms or sore throat etc, I would not go into work. Perhaps a test then might be beneficial, but coughing & spluttering might be concerning for the residents, even if its just a cold.

I think the only useful test would be to see if you were immune to the virus, but that I believe is some way off.

I sense you guys are arguing party politics, 'cos if it was a Labour Government, the shoe might be on the other foot, but you would still be arguing. Any Government takes its advise from its experts, in this case medical professionals. And they are arguing amongst themselves.

No... you need to re-read.

Are you finding there's a shortage of staff at the care home you work in as a result of the virus?

Not especially. While my views tend to come from the left rather than right, I certainly wouldn't be defending a labour government if their actions/inactions were any less than perfect under the same circumstances. And we can be fairly sure that they wouldn't be perfect.

Not sure anyone can be perfect, I guess they are trying their best.

Coronavirus: Health experts 'frustrated' by low UK virus testing

Some 2,921 people have died with coronavirus in UK hospitals, as PHE calls for more NHS staff testing.

www.bbc.co.uk

"In a video message on Twitter on Wednesday evening, he said: "I want to say a special word about testing, because it is so important, and as I have said for weeks and weeks, this is the way through."

Weeks and weeks apparently.

"Mr Johnson was speaking after it was revealed only 2,000 out of some half a million frontline NHS workers in England had been tested."

Ha, in his mind at least.

Really hope he's OK.

 

[westward10]

Like him or not it will be tragic if he dies he is our Prime Minister.

 

[ipf]

Felt there was something a bit strange with the lack of info coming out. He looked rough during the clapping last week.

 

[JBW175]

Let’s hope he pulls through ok.

 

[littlespark]

Yes. Agree

Been reading some idiots on fb and other platforms saying they wish him dead, which is one step from a death threat.
They should be found and dealt with. Surely there’s a way to find these people.

There are some idiots around. Fortunately they are a minority.

Sicko's. Some evil sods around.

 

[SparkyChick]

Twitter and Facebook are cesspits of that kind of garbage. Sad little people wishing people dead just because they disagree with them.

Unfortunately that reflects the Great British Public, absolute idiocy making comments like that.

Don’t normally agree with anything Piers says, but he’s hit the nail on the head with this.
