She’d been diagnosed with terminal cancer a year ago and had been confirmed with Coronavirus last week. Fucking awful. Sooner this is over the better. My condolences to you both. My mother in law, was asked to sign a DNR last week, by surgery staff, who were clearly upset at having to do this. It's an awful state of affairs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably sums up the response to this whole tragic affair. "Thousands have died, and over 700 people are dying a day. We absolutely and completely forgot to consider our society's most vulnerable people in care homes, and those receiving care at home, to the point where we don't even know how many of them have died. We didn't ensure, or even regulate, the standard and supply of ppe to staff, or through the care commission, provide guidance on visits from outsiders to care homes, or isolation of people with symptoms. No testing either. But never mind that shit, we've worked hard all day at drawing them a logo. They didn't even have a logo ffs. We've fixed that issue now. So stand on your doorstep and clap please." 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 8 hours ago, Brother Blades said: My girlfriend is a care worker & had the first death (confirmed) at her care home today. She spent 3 hours with the unfortunate gentleman last night, she has sat with plenty others when they’ve passed and said this mans last few hours were horrific. fortunately (for her), the resident made it through the night. He received 3 separate visits from NHS nursing staff between 10pm & 6am to administer morphine etc. He passed away this morning. I’ve always taken this seriously, but when your partner comes home from work after going through that, it does make a difference. One of the NHS nurses commented that the care home staffs PPE was equivalent to what would be expected in a sandwich shop... Stay safe everyone. Regarding the lack of suitable PPE, it makes me think of Chernobyl and how the brits were quick to shake their heads and tut tut about the army guys and labourers being sent in to sweep up all the radioactive gear that would almost certainly result in serious illness or death. This is over 30 years on and our own government are effectively sending frontline care workers and NHS workers into a similar situation and similarly ill equipped. Yes, it's being talked about but that's not good enough, our media and mp's and even the unions need to be doing far more as it's a national disgrace which is quickly becoming a national tragedy by the day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Ted Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 What is this let's raise money for the NHS that on BBC this morning, it's really infuriating me. Taxation should adequately pay for it. Charities are picking up the tab more often than they should already, due to austerity. Yeah let's pay twice for NHS, because government can't manage it correctly as theyneed more cash for their pals, second homes, coke and whores You really couldn't make this shit up and people are buying into it, morons. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heading in the same direction as the USA where 'philanthropist' billionaires, who have done their utmost to avoid paying tax, donate to charity and are lauded for it. Having said that, I'd like a system where I could choose where my tax was spent. Not on the monarchy, nukes, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) The Daily Mail has this:- Quote An extra 2,600 people a week are dying from non-coronavirus causes as 'disturbed' experts say Britons are struggling to get treatment amid the crisis On the comments section most folk seem to be interpreting this as ' too much time, money, resources being spent on a stupid virus'.

There is a 99 year old army veteran who’s doing 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS and he’s raised £12 million sheets and counting. The NHS isn’t a charity but if it can guilt trip a few Tory c***s then so be it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
