I get this I do, but what exactly do you want to happen right now?
On the subject of PPE, why aren't NHS management getting dragged over the coals like the government is? On the subject of care homes why aren't the private owners of these care homes that make up 80% in this country getting slaughtered in the press? Why aren't the Chinese government getting flogged and questioned about why they let this virus loose worldwide?
The whole crisis has been politicised since Boris announced the pubs were shutting and that's a disgrace to the people who have passed away due to this virus.
There will be race all day Wednesday to draw the best graph to make sure we become the number one country in the world for deaths and infections due to covid-19 no matter what it takes. Sounds bonkers right? Well that's the impression I'm getting recently.
NHS management aren't getting put over the coals because they get given £1 to buy £2's worth of gear, get their staff numbers cut by 20% and then just told to make do. Then when they try and buy the gear they need, or get more staff, it/ they don't exist as our government said we didn't need/ want it.
How can anyone be expected to prepare for our Pandemic response, when the government couldn't even prepare themselves, and loads of them responsible hadn't even read the report!!! Based on the flaws the government actually did notice and highlighted themselves, they did absolutely zero about it, zero gowns in stockpiles and not enough masks, how can anyone else be expected to make up for that colossal fcuckup. It's like blaming a passenger for the car crashing, just because they were in the car, you might want to question the drink driver instead.
How can a care home be majorly responsible when tons of the general population are infected that surround and visit them? They have next to zero authority to just do what they like medically, like what a hospital could (if it was funded, or given supplies). The staff also either don't have the training, or are incapable of being trained at that level, but that's all that's available. There's a mass shortage of nurses who are on terrible money, so who the hell would want to work for a place that can only pay even less? You're saying the tree in the middle of the Forrest fire is at fault, yet they have nowhere to go.
The nurses employed by the NHS, effectively the government and those on the covid wards are being told to work when there's pretty much a 100% chance of being infected, it's practically manslaughter or GBH and there's certainly no danger pay. That's why people are whinging at the government, and highlighting our horrendous graphs as the performance in each of them is a joke. This was all caused by a delayed and $hitty lock-down, that wasn't specific or firm enough. You're actually complaining about people complaining, but those on your side are the same types of people that support that moron government who were sick of experts. We just wanted you and the government to listen to the experts, the actual experts who know about these things and react to them. Our "experts" or "the science" as they are now called, are obviously clueless, or being steered in a money saving direction, rather than a people saving direction. The world has shown them, that by saving the people, the infection will slow so far that it becomes containable, which in turn helps the economy. This "herd immunity" is still in action, but the way it's dragging on is going to damage our economy and cost a lot more lives than locking down two weeks earlier and coming out of lock-down two weeks earlier (whenever that is).
Is it the Chinese government that tell the Chinese people to eat weird stuff, and trade them at illegal markets? A nation of that size is bound to do things slightly different to the rest of the world, It's a developing nation, we also did some pretty rotten/ bad stuff when we were developing too. It's not like corona-viruses originated in China, look at the USA for that back in the 1930's. Yes, this one strain probably did, but seeing as they have about 1/5 of the worlds population, things are going to happen there, it's a statistical fact.
Their people/government managed to spot it, lock down, contain, test, track and be well on their way to recovery all within the same time it's took us to even reach our peak. They did all that with next to no notice, and they're all back at work now, like it's normal. The world should be following exactly what the Chinese did to contain it, you can't just blame them for a disease occurring in their country, it's happened to every developing nation in the world.
Boris doing a press conference on Friday afternoon to announce the pubs close on Friday night has to go down as one of the biggest **** ups the world has ever known. He might as well have just said "go on your last night bender lads!". He is either to dumb to realise that's what people would do, or he's a absolute cretin who wanted more people infected for his herd immunity b***ks.
You say "draw the best graph", like the numbers/ lines are being manipulated to make things look worse for us? We don't need to do that, there's tons of word sites with independent graphs and anyone that can read one can see we're doing/ have done a crap job.
