    This is interesting, you get a lot of frothing about the government at national level turning away from Europe which may be true for the sake of playing silly political games, but this is a tweet from a consultant at Guys and St Thomas'

    I understand bits of it from recent experience, they're looking at blood oxygen and carbon dioxide levels basically He's in one of the six ECMO centres in England as well (probably just a coincidence of location rather than necessarily a clinical need), that's where a machine takes over the...

    I don't buy it, you're talking about the most heavily impacted place in the country and they've got spare capacity in the ICU just in case somebody needs a ventilator, doesn't make any sense. Anyway, hopefully he pulls through. I don't believe him to be a sociopath Tory like IDS, Raab, Patel...

    Yeah, I saw that idiot Peston saying it was only precautionary, being in hospital is the precaution, intensive care is what it is.

    Fair play to Starmer, he's not given Wed Streeting, Stella Creasey or Jess Phillips a shadow cabinet role as yet. 3 utter twats

    They're hugely reliant on the faith of the west though aren't they? The same reason for lying about the numbers in the first place (if they did)

    It isn't a left / right issue, you've come up with an arbitrary number of 10k deaths. At the end of the day that isn't the measure, the measure is how many were genuinely avoidable. If there are avoidable deaths the government has not done a good job. We've lost a few medical professionals and...

    Yep, and I know for a fact that the NHS did some really specific preparation for those, when I worked at a Trust in 2014/15 they still had a load of specially purchased PPE for Swine flu, of course 2009 was back when the NHS had a funding settlement that covered its cost of treating people.

    it's the nearest one to Downing St so i'd imagine you're right he won't be treated privately, no way a private provider would take this type of patient, as ever with anything of life threatening consequence it's the NHS that is there for everybody
