Five Weeks Of Lies
For five weeks now Matt Hancock has insisted that there wasn't a shortage of PPE, nearly every hospital and care home in the country was saying there was, he also insisted that it was a logistical problem only, and that was with 20 thousand army personal drivers ready to deliver. When the army joined us, we were told, this is what the army are brilliant at ( logistics ) ?
Today he says he wished he had a magic wand to produce PPE. When will Mr Hancock face up to the fact that the UK was oh so slow off the starting block, and the cost of that, was peoples lives, especially NHS lives. When will he start telling the truth, ( never).
They've also been telling us that we don't need to wear a face mask,(now their thinking about it), but waiting for the science to tell them. Common sense tells me that face masks can help stop the spread of the virus, if they didn't, then the rest of the world wouldn't be wearing them, or nurses wearing them in hospital or care homes, ( when they can get them) We all know about the top of the range mask that they need to wear in ITC, but the rest of the nurses are wearing bog standard face masks.
There are now UK manufactures pulling out all the stops to produce PPE, they say they have be ignored by Matt Hancock for weeks now, even after making it known to him that they could make what was required. How many more lives need to be lost before they supply the nation with face masks like every other country is doing.
I've changed my mind about Mr Hancock,( give someone a chance to get sorted,) he's had five weeks, and all we've had is five weeks of lies. Whatever advice he or the government give out, I for one will take with a pinch of salt, and do my own thing.

teacake is definitely a gloom and doom merchant, as I have opined before, BUT I don't like Matt Hancock and don't think he's up to the job, so I agree with him here (for a change).

When we are IN the battle things can seem unclear, 'fog of war' and all the ensuing plausible deniability; the preparation and planning against such catastrophes need investigating :
"Labour has called on ministers to publish the suppressed conclusions of a cross-government pandemic drill that took place in 2016, which accurately predicted that the NHS would be plunged into crisis by an infectious and deadly disease"

You don't say. Well I never. Was it just the NHS that was to be plunged(haha plunged) into a crisis......or all the hand wringing, rabbit in the headlights, echoes from the chamber of terminal dissonance, false reality images like your self? Have you waited all this time to re enact your wet dream or will you deign to succumb in a blaze of fluster and bluster to the realities as usual?
P.S A nuclear holocaust would be hard to bear......but we have planned for it. What are they doing for godssake. I want my bunker now.

well, yes, the argument was that if some people buy all the loo rolls there won't be any left for other people. But I don't think there'd be any objection if the NHS stockpiled medical kit, even when there wasn't a pandemic on.
To some extent you have to balance cost against likelihood of use, the way London Transport don't have much in the way of snow-clearing equipment. But even if there are fewer pandemics than blizzards, the potential effects are so much worse that I think there's a strong case for being a lot better prepared than they were.

plenty of PPE and sanitisers down here, not least the Healeys (Rattler fame) using their gin machine to make sanitiser. They are best friends to my sister so she is happy washing her hands in gin and then drinking a G&T.....and they helped the Mater's home out - and others. My bet is that, yes, there are shortage hotspots but a lot, maybe the majority, have the necessary and what we are getting is Press negativeness that then rubs off on the likes of teacake.
