superbigal Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Yous all want to get jobs as a clinical contact caseworker on the dog and bone. I was quite surprised at the hourly rate when the mrs showed me the email she received. Bizarrely from nhs in England asking her to apply. 17 bucks an hour paye on a weekday. What suprised me though was 22 bucks an hour evenings and Saturdays, 27 bucks an hour sundays. Does the public sector pay the huge premiums in all jobs when you dont do 9-5 ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest_Fifer Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Where is that table from?NHS England daily stats at https://www.england.nhs.uk/statistics/statistical-work-areas/covid-19-daily-deaths/Note, they state that the last 5 or so days worth of stats are subject to change, as deaths are added to the system. So the stats presented there are not the final amount. They are also only hospital deaths. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They panicked at the 500,000 figure and couldn't risk not having the additional capacity. Nightingale didnt open until about a week after the peak, and had taken just 41 patients by the 24th. I find it incredibly hard to believe a disease with an average time from infection to death of 24 days or there or there abouts would peak sharply just 18 days after lockdown started. Especially when, during that period supermarkets were rammed, and there was little in the way of social distancing outside or inside them like there is now. It seems too soon. I also find it incredible that we are still counting cases from March in a death total announced on 12th May as having died "in the last 24 hours" It's what leads to people going mental at the thought of easing lockdown when "hundreds are dying each day" which, whilst true, the actual number has been around 200 per day for over a week (around 13% of expected daily deaths) and has started to fall quite sharply over the last 5 days If the same method of counting is applied up here it would be interesting to see These lads concluded an average (median) progression to fatality at just over 18 days. That seems incredibly consistent with a peak after 18 days. Fortunately they have published a fair amount of detail about their methodology so you can be very specific about where you think their analysis is weak. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)30566-3/fulltext What you got? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we should consider lengthening the school day in august by 30-45 minutes for kids to get extra tuition and catch up, isn’t a catch all answer but as close as possible to giving the government time to come up with distancing measures etc. Would be daft to bother opening secondary schools before August, though maybe P7 need a few wee transition sessions. There's no way at all they should be doing extra work once they get back. I'd say the complete opposite; move to a four day Mon-Thu teaching week. Let the teachers use Friday morning for admin/training/resources development and the kids can get a bit of (proper, professional) online homework to do over a three day weekend.

Billy Jean King Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 He's just a spokesman, a mouthpiece ffs. Do you think he is sitting dreaming up and putting into practice these schemes himself. In this current chancellor, we could well be looking at a future PM. His handling of this crisis and his willingness to listen to reasonable concerns regarding extending furlough payments is very refreshing. I also like the way he has rejected the "addicted" phrase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coprolite Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Anyone who wants kids to spend an extra 45 minutes a day at school is a heartless b*****d who has forgotten what it was like to be a child. The 5 minutes before 3.30 took an hour, so you're asking kids to spend an extra 9 hours in school. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy Jean King Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I'm sure there are a few teachers who want to be teachers but there are more than a few who are in it for days off and couldn't get a job anywhere else.Aye any old dosser who can't get a job just needs to roll up at the school gates and they will instantly hand him a teaching job ! Grow up ffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
