Absurd and outrageous in equal measure that the health secretary was today using national radio like fucking EBay to beg for some ventilators like a clucking crack-head begging for some rocks from a street dealer. Surprised he didn’t offer to suck people off if they came up with one.

What’s the **** been doing for the last few weeks? Any **** could see we were going to need more ventilators back in January. Absolute fucking clown.
 
If we do lockdown here they'll be a lot of babies born around Christmas time.

Wonder if they'll name them Wuhan or Covid?

Seeing people running marathons, attending horse racing or concerts in their thousands and posts from people I know being in pubs and restaurant's... I think people in UK have no idea just how bad things are going to get.

Every other country is enacting some form of social distancing to slow it down yet this country has to bumble it's way through situations yet again.

He's very good but seems to not know everything. 5Live had an emergency medicine specialist on yesterday who said that multiple people can be hooked up to each ventilator which throws his maths off completely.

He said up to 4 people could be hooked up depending on how bad a state they were in.

Also, I don't want to sound disparaging because I think his content is very good, but I do wonder how many of his viewers know he's not a medical doctor, but a nurse with a teaching PhD?

Fair enough but that bit about Ventilators is something not many people would know so why is no one tell people this?

No one has suggested the summer will kill it only that it will slow it down and help the NHS cope.

Thinking about it a bit more I wonder if the document has been leaked deliberately to drip the timescale and potential numbers into the public realm. How can those in the highest risk groups be expected to remain in isolation for that long?

The less information given from a gov, the safer its citizens feel. A leadership depends on its citizens being ignorant, is what the gov hopes for, but the new age of information, they need a new strategy.

Yeah I suspect that is the case. What is an “underlying Health Issue” for example?

Millions of people over 50 take Statins or blood pressure tablets for example. Would they be classed as an UHI?

Is what it is mate the coronavirus doesn't give a shit about anyones circumstances, if you are high risk you have to stay indoors and self isolate even if its for months.

You just have to hope that as a nation we all play our part in helping each other out and giving people some social interaction via the internet ect.
