    So you think it's fair game to show coffins and makeshift morgues in just about every newsclip? That's not populist rags,that's the mainstream media and news channels.

    I watch the BBC1 program "Breakfast", every morning and that Louise M (whatever her name is) is so constantly talking about herself - her hair, makeup, her friends' bloody dogs etc etc, that Dan Walker is starting to be influenced by her inane comments and irrelevant babble. Sadly, she overcompensates by cutting off guests who are interesting or saying useful stuff. If she's interviewing a guest she uses the Paxman style too to score points.
    Drives me nuts.

    You don’t think makeshifts morgues are newsworthy? Coffins building up due to lack of capacity at crematoria? There’s plenty of folk who still think this is a fuss about nothing, and a picture tells a thousand words and all of that.

    ffs, if a journo was filming inside the an isolation unit inside a hospital as doctors tried to save a patient - yes too far. Doctors and nurses filming themselves to raise concerns about safety - absolutely vital to keep up the pressure on those in charge to get it right.

    Not sure I’d want a ventilator made by Ford or Dyson, but I’d happily have one from smith and nephew given they’re already in the medical devices business and understand the quality standards needed.

    If I we’re fighting for breath and turning blue I would have one made by the Allam's mate.

    1.2million NHS Staff and no, not all front line, gives you a scale. Not all are employed by the NHS. CHCP major health care provider locally is not part of the NHS. Lots of others we assume are NHS are private companies.

    There seems to be quite a lot of arguments at the moment.

    Please try to stay calm.

    We're all in the same pool of poo.

    Love to all <peacedove>

    The U-turn was because they originally got it completely wrong.

    Ok
    I actually read sec 7 in isolation. It does make more sense after reading sec 6 first.
    Still a bit odd that I can accidentally bump into another person while we're going about doing our essential activities then we can socialise. However no element of planning is allowed. Good luck with those policing that!

    When this is all over, I'l be interested in the number of deaths in 2020 vs previous years in the uk. We don't know what to believe any more, but one expert claimed most who die from cv would have died within a few months anyway.
