I'm afraid page 94 of the Covid pandemic handbook hasn't been written yet, so yeh they're having to make it up as they go along, but don't fear when another similar pandemic comes along we'll know what to do next time because page 94 might have been written by then.

Jambo no 1 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 https://apple.news/AlT8h1RuZQxqI-GjLNHejQw Prof Chris Whitty, England's chief medical officer, said these restrictions would be in place for a "block of time", with Whitehall sources admitting it is likely to be three months or more. The prime minister, trying to sugarcoat the bitter pill, flagged again his hope that a testing 'moonshot' - regular mass testing to allow for a return to normal life - might mean parties, big family gatherings, sporting events, theatre visits could be back on. But it's a long shot to say the least. Sir Patrick was quite clear that they don't yet know if these daily saliva tests work: "They have not been validated," he said. The PM's moonshot is certainly a long-shot. What is closer to home is the grim reality that the country is far from defeating coronavirus and it's going to be long winter ahead. Let’s hope and pray that these saliva tests do work. It would a great aid to getting much more freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) If Whitty has said something like "a block of time" then a period of time has probably been advised by SAGE and the likes of Whitty knows full well that the weirdo arsehole and some of the snakes in government will water it down as much as possible. The narrative of SAGE merely providing advice and that decisions are made by non science competent ministers is true. It's a narrative correctly used by experts to keep making it known that expert advice is often discarded.

skinnybob72 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 If ALL households stocked up and went home tonight and stayed in their own house for a month - with zero contact with anyone else - the virus would be virtually eradicated. However, this simply isn't possible as some people can't care for themselves, while hospitals and care homes need to function with people moving from their own home environment to work in such places. Lockdown back in March / April probably got as close to eradicating contact as we are going to get - but it was enough for the virus to keep circulating but in much smaller numbers. How many NHS / care home staff had the virus - they were likely to be the main spreaders at that time despite a massive increase in use of PPE. Lockdown is being gradually eased and it's enough to let the virus start spreading in ever larger numbers because it hadn't gone away completely. This was always going to happen. Personally, I think that if we can't develop a vaccine, we should do our best to shield those who need to be shielded and let the virus go through the rest of society, the vast, vast majority of whom will have only a mild illness. Attempt to get herd immunity as best we can so that there are fewer people able to contract the virus and pass it on. There would clearly be some lives lost as there will be people who react badly, or had underlying health conditions that they were unaware of - but we can't just hide forever. A difficult conundrum for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
