Still Dancing Round The Truth
Matt Hancock still standing there tonight insisting that they have plenty of PPE, and even after nearly four weeks STILL saying its a logistical problem, how difficult can it be to get a box of PPE from A TO B with twenty thousand army personal ( drivers).
A top consultant on BBC news tonight has said its like going into battle with no armour. But I'm sure they will be some on here who will believe Matt apposed to a front line consultant. Its not the public that are putting NHS staff in danger, but their government, be sure of that. Four weeks of excuses and loss of the lives of NHS workers for no reason.

It's hard to see what more he can do since every single country wants PPE.
I've asked this before- why is it seen as his job to get it? Doesn't the NHS have procurement managers and other managers who are supposed to make sure they use some of the 100 billion pounds a year the NHS gets to ensure they have supplies to hand.
The message today seemed to be that guidance ha snow been issue don how best to use it- the implication is that it is being used when not necessary and sometimes is being replaced more often than it need to be.
I think sometimes PPE is in the wrong places. Maybe hospital managers should have systems in place to reallocate it quickly between hospitals or departments if one bit runs out? Hermes or other couriers can do next day deliveries.
Also if all the people who buy masks to walk their dogs or drive cars or go round the supermarket were to send them to hospitals that might help.
It's complicated really. What do you suggest he should do to stop any shortages?
