From what I’ve heard the problem has been so many staff either suffering from Covid or isolating and it’s left them with not enough trained staff to man them. Could be wrong mind.

So, we should be vaxing the front line staff

But, lets be honest, youre nearer this than some, we dont have the staff

Presume they’ll increase restrictions before Thursday to stop people having NYE parties?

I suppose it'd be a good way of finding out exactly how effective the vaccines are as well.

Anyway, we apparently now have more people in hospital with Covid than we did at the height of the first peak in April.

They should lift reporting restrictions on hospitals.

People need to see how busy they are, see the struggle. Maybe then they’d realise it’s actually happening.

The media blackout just distances everyone and I don’t understand it.

For as long as ive taken an interest, hospitals have been 'full' in jan and feb

Maybe its worse this year, but its definitely not a new thing

Define full though?  Wards I assume?

what about the extra capacity created by canceling most ops, out patients appointments , cancer treatments etc. 

 

this is where I struggle to get a handle. I saw a letter written by someone portraying to work in an NI hospital a couple of weeks ago. Was very thankful for his health and that financially he had been ok due to his vocation not being affected. Then went onto say they had the painters and joiners etc in to refurb large chunks of the hospital that weren’t being used. Said he was sat on his backside bored.

Man after my own heart. But please be mindful that some people don’t want to read about what’s really happening they would like a window dressed flowery version that all is well

Correct on both counts imo

We’ve not had the amount of staff that is needed for many years based on the public’s expectations. The Kings Fund explain it very well via a course called The NHS Explained. Unbiased explanation of how the NHS works and where we are. Highly recommended if anyone is genuinely interested 

The missus had her 1st jab a week ago, she works in A&E.

This. Easy enough to go for a walk in your own area, without piling into somewhere miles away.

Be nice to go somewhere coastal for some bracing sea air, but I'm not doing.
