And a mate of mine has spent the past week getting no return calls and heās repping for a company in China with masks & PPE to NHS specs & has samples.
Most odd
Not really that surprising⦠Boris et al have made a lot about the new Britain not needed to be beholden to those foreigners and that we can make all the stuff we need here (unless itās the stuff made by Dyson in the Far East)⦠I suspect Happy to let folks die rather than admit we need helpā¦
Insane. Silver linings are that I donāt think weāre going to trust politicians of this calibre, e.g. mostly PPE graduates that havenāt done anything close to what the majority would consider a real job. This is a lack of follow through typical of those that are more used to talking about stuff than doing stuff.
You could almost be forgiven for thinking that Cummingās herd immunity is still the plan!
positive cases +2433 to 19522.
deaths +209 to 1228.
I believe itās a similar story with flights from Spain/Madrid.
I watched a Sky News report earlier about the efforts their reporter had to take to get into China.
All cabin staff were on the planes were in full PPE, temperature taken multiple times on the flight and at every point of departure/boarding.
Watch the view here.
Compare that to our efforts.
If China is telling the truth
Letās not beat about the bush here, it is blindingly obvious from the actions, (or inactions) of the government over the past few weeks that they will keep the herd immunity project going for as long as they think they can get away with it. Nothing else makes sense.
Plenty of footage on all news channels of the police drones catching dog walkers in remote spots, but not a dicky bird about 20 flights a day coming into Heathrow from NY, no checks on passengers, all disappearing to all points of the UK via tubes, trains etc. Why is that i wonder, surely to any normal person it has to be newsworthy under current circumstances.
Wakey wakey!

Yes it is morning, but letās lengthen and elongateā¦
Seems Iāve been following a similar exercise regime most of my life.
Iāve been working out my right arm!

Adam Buxton has a new podcast chat re coronavirus with a Dr.
So maybe up to 3 months to check but saying up to 6 months of some restrictions.
If we have a baking summer like last year Iām not sure people will be keeping to it.
They need to get those tests our there seeing who has antibodies now, or if they even have it and get people to work, especially key workers. Two of my colleagues quarantined for colds. They are now going to wor at home due to having kids at home anyway.
With the first two UK doctors now dead from contracting COVID-19, the government is about to get pelters over the lack of personal protective equipment.
Weāre watching Contagion to cheer us upā¦
Looks like 3.
Both my friend who work in NHS have had it. One doesnāt even see patients. So it will have gone though staff in hospitals quite easily.
PPE and testing of all staff. Save the letter and leaflet which will no doubt be binned.
Iām delighted to hear that something can cheer you up, Barry.
Some good news - amazing what bright people can cobble together in a short space of time in an entirely new field to them
