People with serious underlying conditions have continued to die with or without Covid19. Others are dying and will die because of the NHS neglect of those without Covid 19. Take a day off.

luckydug Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 1 hour ago, Brian Dundas said: The outcomes for cancer patients in the next few years could be very bad, I think I saw that there could be 3500 deaths that could have been preventable in the next two years due to COVID impact. The other issue is that cancer patients are very vulnerable to the virus and covid, it has been a tough situation, but treatments have continued and been adapted to allow them to continue. Part of opening up is also ensuring these people are protected. You would think that the last place that cancer patients and others with pre existing medical conditions wanted to be at the height of the pandemic was in hospital. People are forgetting that staff at hospitals were getting infected and anyone who's life was not in immediate danger had to be kept away from hospitals. It's unrealistic to expect services to jump back to normal already after the strain that has been placed on NHS. Regards your last sentence I had an appointment at the Eye Hospital yesterday and the staff are brilliant but due to safe distancing the waiting area has lost about two thirds of its seating capacity. This is bound to have an effect on waiting lists for appointments and no doubt other clinics will be affected in the same way. The only way the NHS can get back to its previous efficiency levels is if social distancing is scrapped. That is a completely different argument of course.

Do you honestly believe people with pre existing medical conditions should have been allowed to continue their treatment in hospitals during a pandemic.

AlphonseCapone Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Not sure why everything is so polarised. I played football yesterday for the first time in almost half a year. Was amazing. Went to the cinema on Sunday. Wore my mask in the cinema as that was the rule. Went to the shop. Didn't wear my mask walking there. Wore it inside as is requested. I'm doing things and going places and following the rules as asked. It's starting to feel a bit more normal outside. I'm finding it easy enough to do things I did previously and follow whatever guidelines are in place. Most folk seem the same.

From the perspective if someone can no longer travel as it's not feasible for them to quarantine upon return. A lot of airlines are making their decision to fly or not based on FCO guidance. On Thursday (and beyond) if the FCO still deem the Greek Islands ok to travel to, flights from Edinburgh and Glasgow to Greece will still depart. The airline won't be obliged to offer a refund and insurers will not pay out as they'll take a steer from FCO. This seems to be a similar problem the Scottish Government created with Spain in July.
