Then I expect they will be called again.
Did you catch anything.This is very true.
I once had to sit near Piers Morgan.
Very strange/worrying times indeed. Still feels a bit surreal tbh.Me too mate, would be brilliant, tough times eh ?
I don know Ric personally.Im cautious maybe 3 ?

Maybe you’re right.
You are specalised intensive care nurses,you have to know and understand the equipement,have confidence and skills to look after critical patients,you can't just do an hrs crash course,as always with the nhs cutting corners is the order of the day,i know how it works through experience not looking at graphs and plans,the specialised nurses and dr are exhausted already,you don't have more of the same that you can just wheel out,drs can switch but nurses specialise much more,it is naive to think we won't be plugging holes and hoping for the bestThey've already said they have 20,000 3rd year undergraduate nurses (a few months away from graduating) who will be used to free up experienced nurses to go onto the new ICU wards.
Fortunately Karen, things like "who's going to staff the wards" is not a question anyone could forget when calculating how many extra ICU beds can be made.
Someone gets it at least.Absolutely correct.
What people who keep saying "trust the advice of the scientists" fail to grasp is that these are political decisions more than scientific ones. If you asked scientists right now, what was the best way to limit deaths from COVID-19 to an absolute minimum, then surely the answer would be to shut all non-essential services down immediately and send everyone home. Patrol the streets with troops and keep everyone apart from those involved in food production and distribution (and one or two other essential activities) shut in. Job done.
But obviously the political answer is we cannot simply do that. So immediately you are not acting solely on scientific advice. Practical and economic considerations have to come into it. The scientists produce models to suggest the most appropriate actions given certain constraints. And the politicians consider the recommendations and the pros and cons and make a political decision as to the best overall course. You can simply say "it's the Chief Medical Officer's" recommendation.
Now there’s something we need herd immunity fromThis is very true.
I once had to sit near Piers Morgan.
**** herd immunity, mate — we need a cure!Now there’s something we need herd immunity from
That’s fair comment, but this was the big call and as I’ve said, I genuinely assumed everyone could see it coming?To be honest then mate if you've got a lot of predictions wrong, its not that clever if and when one comes right to say "everyone saw it coming".
Cos you would have said that if any of you other incorrect predictions had happened.
Which they didn't.
