Face Masks not stopping the spread of Coronavirus.

The testing is a disaster in some cases ,family member who is nearly ninety waited 5 days on a result.

Why is there not more publicity about the failures like the ones given as examples. Is it that a no virus test result doesn't get the same effort to follow up, as a positive result?
I can see this current situation getting big publicity. Lockdown needs to be re defined IMO. It is a blunderbus approach and we should have a much more targeted system based on test and trace.

I had an idea, anyone got an email address for Hugh Pennington? He seems a media savvy type of person and I wonder if his ideas could be posted on here to help with our discussions. I don't use Twitter or Face Book so I wonder if there is a way to get some "expert views".

I read an article a few weeks ago might have been the Scotsman where he didn’t think they’re would be a second spike just more small outbreaks of the first,that doesn’t fit we Nics narrative that’s for sure so he’ll certainly not be a government spokesperson anytime soon...anyway the temporary hospital is being dismantled so they’ve decided that’s not going to happen...

£Millions to commission, £Millions to decommission less than six months later. Just waiting for the Millions unemployed now.

Scandalous.

According to courier (I know) they may well be wrong.

Nothing will change until Govts admit they overeacted.

Can't see that so will continue with this "stay safe" or the bogeyman will get you.

No long till life support furlough is shut off then it's everyman for themselves.....wonder if we will all be "in it together" then.......somehow doubt it.

Admit they overreacted and that they continue to overreact surely?

Yes.

Facemasks in schools now I see.

I still can't help staring when I see folk walking in the open air with masks on ....I'd love to ask them why.

Maybe just me but I also see a lot more people (not many) giving masks a swerve in shops.

Went in the bookies on Friday, usual 3 customers all masked up yet the one who should have a mask the robbing bookie was maskless.....only Scotland.

Test and trace is not working.

I also now someone who was one of the first six people connected with Kingspark was tested positive with COVID-19.

When I had my coronavirus test at Kings Cross hospital I had the results of my test which was negative exactly 25 hours after I got my test.
