I'll throw a wee spanner in the works. The lockdown has been effective.
When it opens up again who knows?
I know a few folk in the nhs as do many.
The frontline stuff is embarrassing.
It's the quietest they have been in years in most hospitals in the UK outside the heavy hit places.
I'm only going on what the nhs staff I know have said.
Litteraly empty hospitals.
Partly the reason for that raft of hero quickly promoted students being leg go, the retired showing up to be told not to come in only 3days wages in the pocket.
I'm in a weird place just now concerning my opinion on this whole thing.
I will never say covid isn't dangerous my own old granny in a home recovered.
I think the gov were more concerned with compo claims through saturation and miss care rather than a turbo charged flu.
It's transfer is still an issue.
I will eventually be in the frontline so to speak with far less ppe than hospital staff have now.
Is that not more dangerous? I'm not trained to a proper level. My site will never be hospital clean.
I maintain that supplies have caught up and that's why we are opening restrictions.
Survival rate is the same. Lives or bodies aren't the issue.
It's a line of people that can't be seen and passing away in a corridor is a govs biggest fear.
Resources are in place. No vacincie available.
Aresol transmission is a genuine concern so much so that p3 masks were the only accepted by the medical community at the beginning.
I'll add that these masks are the only ones that work!
They squashed the aresol rule deliberately. Watch a guy with a vape. In a breeze. That's open air.
Surface transmission...can't avoid this folks. It's that simple.
How much can you tell the public before they flip?
Now people think a fashion mask works.
On a phone with gloves on. Gloves off and same phone in the house.
Covidiots.
I'm prepared to get on with it. Careful yes.
Can it be contained? No it can't. Are they set up now ...bit better yes.
