Covid-19

[Baldbloke]

More people probably die from the winter flu then covid-19? Is a virus every now and again a bad thing?

If you’d seen the few I’ve already seen coming into our A&E you probably wouldn’t be quite so cool about it.

We’ve just relocated our Covid 19 hub outwith of the hospital in an effort to keep the place ‘Clean’.

I’ve been moved to the Covid hub and like most who’ve been moved there are shitting ourselves. Please take this very seriously. If you’re affected badly it’s not a good way to go..

To add to my comment above: when it was reported that Scotland had 6 deaths a few weeks ago related to C -19 I was aware of 4 in our hospital. I thought it strange that most had occurred in the NE of Scotland, until, it was pointed out to me that it takes 5 days to a week before the figures are released. Take care people[emoji1303]

Not that strange that the Oil Capital of Europe is at the epicenter of Scotland is it?

The point I was trying to make was that when they reported 4 deaths it was actually closer to 25. The news we hear is old news.

BTW I’m 50 miles north of Aberdeen

Interesting take on things.

Looks like we are going to pass his 50k death toll marker tomorrow. Silly old man trying to scaremonger us into thinking it's a global government conspiracy.

 

Pity he was wrong about the death toll though.

Nick Ferrari just nailed it, "prime minister, what you are doing isn't good enough"

But what would be good enough, methinks it would require a fairy wi a magic wand.

BUT

Testing is the one factor we, the UK, led by our Government, appear to have failed on.

You've nailed it also, Marcus, if 'we' aren't testing people we don't know what's going on, exactly Nick Farriari's point.

Test is only a small part of it, ppe for NHS is at the top of list if you  test NHS worker at home thinking they have it when they haven't with out ppe you are just chucking them back into  the fire.
