Yet another virus thread, which perhaps merits its own thread..

I am now tending towards this view (knowing a few people with conditions who are deteriorating rapidly and seem to have no hope of getting treatment in the near future).

If you hit escape on your keyboard at the right time you can read the whole article.

Basically she's blaming the NHS for our terrible COVID-19 stats. Toxic kcufwittery.

The article started well, and then she took an unexpected side road. I hope it ends on a cliff overlooking a deep lake, and her brakes fail.

I also saw the Panorama programme, and it didn't cross my mind to point the finger at the NHS. As someone once said, we're all in this together, and the blame game shouldn't be starting just yet, especially when this government has so much to answer for.

I blame the previous government. Oh.
