This is only the first.  Hold on to your hats folks.

Most (not all but most) of this was avoidable.  PEOPLE ARE SO STUPID!  AS IF ONLY DISEASES WITH A HIGH DEATH RATE WERE THE RISKY ONES.

Why don't they reopen the new emergency hospitals they built? Wasn't one called NHS Nightingale?
Those who got it wrong, for whatever reason, may feel defensive and retrench into a position that doesn’t accord with the facts.

This is Thorne, I had to re-register as I forgot my password. . . . They say the mind is the first thing to go. . . 

Hi Technophobe, I saw this earlier today, and my BS radar flipped up. Is this due to no staff? The video shows not one single person. . . Of course it is being presented as "proof" that the pandemic is a fake.

Thanks in advance.

Welcome back!

You can build a hospital in two weeks - the Chinese showed that.  You can manufacture cpaps and ventilators, monitors and drugs in mere days.  

But it takes years to train Doctors and nurses.


I suppose the Chinese bussed, or flew, them in from all over China - but that slack is used up throughout the whole World now.

DJ health care staff is getting ill on a problematic scale...

[url]https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-three-intensive-care-units-in-london-full-on-new-years-eve-leaked-email-shows-12177002[/url] or https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-three-intensive-care-units-in-london-full-on-new-years-eve-leaked-email-shows-12177002 ;

Intensive care units in three London hospitals were "full" on New Year's Eve, leaving patients waiting to be transferred to other hospitals for critical care, according to a leaked NHS email obtained by Sky News.

The email, which was sent on Thursday afternoon to staff at University College London Hospital, recorded the status of intensive care units (ICUs) in the northwest and central areas of London, which have been hit hard by the steep rise in coronavirus infections.

-

The email, which was first reported in the Independent, made what it described as an "URGENT ask" for teams to "look at what they did in the first surge and release ALL the staff they did then," adding that "we will need to go ABOVE this in a number of areas".

The news comes after an internal email from Royal London Hospital, first reported by The Times, said that the hospital was in "disaster medicine mode" and was no longer able to provide high-standard critical care.

DJ-Strict lockdown is supposed to bring down the number of new cases-after a week/ten days...to put it in "Dutch terms" the water is coming over the dyke" .

Other (developed) countries/regions may be even in a worse shape...maybe more news on this healthcrisis will bring some people to realize they need to change their behavior...

Talking about the UK situation:

Quote

Senior doctor Prof Andrew Goddard said the virus's highly infectious new variant was spreading nationwide.

Case numbers were "mild" compared with where he expected them to be next week, he said, with doctors "really worried".

Hold on, it will be a rough ride.
