Ok, might be better to have a test earlier, but perhaps that would need even greater capacity than is currently available. Although some of the infrastructure will be different, the basic method is the same as Germany, etc. Lots of folk with phones or as in some places knocking on doors. Interestingly, South Korea didn't make their scheme mandatory initially but changed it. Not sure about Germany, but they have high compliance within the population so it may not matter. Therein lies what may be the biggest issue: if people don't comply, don't moan if it drags on. Speaking to someone who's been working on this. No surprise, it's a dog's dinner at the moment. Quote

MalcolmW Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 Boris has always been a blusterer - see his Mayor's Question Time performances. He has been dangerously ill and came back to the hotseat without adequate recuperation. His performance now is below par, even for him. Whereas he could walk an election in December that will not be the case anytime soon. Starmer (QC) is a smart cookie and can skewer Johnson at PMQs time after time. He knows that being generally supportive to the government but criticising their serious errors is a good long-term strategy. And that now is a good time not to be running the country. Cummings did not break any rules by travelling north to a cottage on his father's farm, which actually has a different postcode to the farmhouse. But his trip out to BC was a different matter and his description about finding the lay-by near the Tees is less than accurate. If a storm doesn't blow over within a week it will not go away. See Alistair Campbell for details. Quote

Tombwfc Posted May 28, 2020 Posted May 28, 2020 The bloke is a weirdo. And his explanation for why we apparently have a fully functioning app ready to go but are choosing not to use it is absurd. Quote

So if I get put forward for this and have no symptoms I can't book a test straight away, get found negative and go back to work?! So I MUST self-isolate but it's mandatory? Even if I have a test and am found negative I still have to complete the 14 days isolating?!?! WTF?!??! Clear as mud. I thought the point of this was to get rid of the need of 'isolating for nothing'. Any mention of the app yet? Nah Problem with all of that is the tone change after the first sentence.we go from being TOLD to being asked and advised. Most of us grown ups take the advice as being a rule. Others take advice being something which gives a choice. Well I’m sorry, some people need TELLING not ASKING or ADVISING to do something. Quote

This would be funny if the stakes weren't peoples lives and livelihoods. id seen that yellow nhs one and was consoling myself that at least it was less confusion than the first effort. all briefings from now on should be to a soundtrack.
