Did you guys ever see that pigeon down the burges, it had that McFlurry thing around it’s neck to make it look like it was wearing a ruff from the Stuart times? It was a great thing.

So Are you saying that for instance,
If you wear the mask and you have the virus, it won’t prevent you spreading the virus to others
If you cough or sneeze in a public place ?

According to Finish scientists 3D modelling there’s a lot of merit in the general public wearing masks in public not to stop yourself catching it as such but to stop anyone who might have it spreading it. 3D simulation shows how a single cough can spread coronavirus through a grocery store

Maybe he was an NHS worker who’d just finished his shift and not noticed that he’d accidentally left his government supplied PPE on.

Your post (and the attached likes) just qualified my points entirely.

Or maybe, just maybe, people aren't trying to take the higher ground or point score, maybe they're genuinely upset and angry at the appalling response by the government and that thousands of people are dying?

Just a thought.

Well you are particularly one sided on this so you can keep telling yourself that's the case.

It's pretty obvious this thread is one point scoring orgy.

She seems to be useless. She seems to be untrustworthy. She stumbled on a number. Abbott said the number she had worked out for herself. Wouldn't want either of them in charge of anything.

Because I can see his posts when they are quoted.

As you can clearly see it shows the posts as being ignored.

Eyesight would be in the section mate.

Criticise both sides all you want. One side has been in charge for a decade and done fuck all to prepare the NHS for anything like this and in actual fact made it less capable due to ideologically enforced privatisations and the other side hasn’t. Hypothetical ‘the other side are just as bad’ is pathetic stawman bollocks.

You claim to be neutral yet have troped out this nonsense with literally not 1 shred of evidence to support it (mostly because even you know it’s bullshit) So you’re not neutral in the slightest... and making out so is laughably worse than what you accuse some of being.

What have I said that is nonsense? My points have largely been proven since my original post already.

The mentality here is that because I'm not 100% Labour that means I'm an enemy? I seem to remember the same attitudes back in the 2016 referendum. I've done more tory negative posts (due to the corona handling) and criticse both parties when I see fit. Considering that I didn't vote for, or like either of them, I don't see how that makes me anything other than neutral.

Really, get a grip.

Mind, if it was used on SARS, why wasn't it deployed this time with Covid-19?

I wonder if this has opened his eyes a little? I sincerely hope so, but we shall see.

Boris Johnson has praised the "exemplary" care he has received from doctors and nurses during his coronavirus treatment, saying: "I owe them my life."

Hailing the work of medics at St Thomas' Hospital in London, the prime minister has told friends: "I can't thank them enough."

You said this crisis would be worse under Labour... with no discernible or credible evidence to back up that view. I’m calling it out because it’s a) pure whataboutery b) deflection and c) total bullshit.

It is a global emergency, and yes it has hit some countries very badly. But we had the jump on this, we had time to get our shit together. Herd Immunity is an ideology that sits perfectly in the Tory attitudes of fuck the poor.

The Tories own this... every single failure to prepare adequately sits solely with them and no-one else.

Over here I mean. Just didn't think it was worth it? A mild, or moderate case can surely turn into a severe case can't it. Often the symptoms start off as mild don't they?

I can’t stand Patel for many reasons ‘this isn’t and won’t become one of them.

I said I thought the crisis would be handled even worse under Labour, that's not saying the tories have handled it well is it? That's not saying anyone other than the tories are accountable is it?

Your post is completely bizarre. I made the point that the tories handled it badly and can break that down into several reasons also. I only said that I don't think Labour would have come out any better. Obviously the only point you picked up on was the latter.

Instead of trying to add a balanced debate and perhaps talk about the points I raised, you have completely proved yourself to be one of the people I was talking about in my original post. To bring up my post from a while back is exactly point scoring.

You're bitter Ian. If I had said fuck labour and suck off the tories you might have a point, but all I have done is say that trying to see this from a neutral perspective is like no man's land, and that the actual virus is a side plot to some in their conquest to boast about their own political standpoints.

I’ve repeated numerous times on here she’s a midwife over the last 5 years.

I wasn’t actually trying to make out she was on the frontline either, nor did I say she was, I feel worried about her enough as it is.

“Admitted she wasn’t on the front line”??

Midwives are frontline, delivering babies is non elective and covid doesn't discriminate. Pretty ignorant to suggest they're not.
