To be honest as I've said before I don't see the point of being tested "on spec" without symptoms. 

 

Now an antibody test does appeal but there not there yet. 

 

You don't see the point in accurate surveillance?

How nice of her.

Very much so but symptoms/suspected cases have to be the starting point not just people shitting it. 

 

They've suggested a random 100k of home tests - that makes sense from a data pov I have to say..

I can see business and people doing what they did with the lockdown and start opening things up and taking hold of this situation as them cunts in charge don't have a fucking clue.

Well given 1 in 4 tests are inaccurate, and you could catch COVID the day after you take the test, I can see his point

Someone I’ve never heard of not being able to get to the hairdressers is incredible. How inspiring

“ So Hilarie/Hillary however the fuck you spell it today, what will be your overriding memory of the lockdown?”

“Tatty minge”.

I see the cunts have fudged the numbers on their 100,000 target but the BBC are still leading with it.

The BBC are too busy displaying moral outrage at our potential takeover to hold the government to account 

[Dr Gloom 21861]

Setting an ambitious target and almost hitting it is a good achievement, tarnished by the government’s pathetic attempt to spin it. There would have been nothing wrong with just being honest and saying we almost got there but not quite. 

[Rayvin 5187]

Except he foolishly said it was a promise, not a target.

I'm going to stress as well that when I was managing operations in my previous job, I had to make commitments to get a certain amount of product out of the door by certain points, usually up to several pallets worth of books that that had to be made within a few days. 

 

While i was able to judge the time needed myself at the start, it was on understanding that i wouldnt miss the deadline i gave myself. If I was a day out, I would be crucified.

 

People make the mistake of judging this shit as if government ministers should be held to the same standard as normal people in every day tasks. They should not. They should be held to the standards and beyond, that I was held to. Especially when they're actually weighing people's lives against what they're promising, not just company profits as I was.

 

I fucking hated the pressure of those orders, as I'm sure Hancock came to hate this, but... IT WAS MY FUCKING JOB.

There are no words for my hatred of this government.They have turned a serious scientific/medical point into a political one. Hancock is a snivelling cum stain of a man. The media are also complicit on this, for several reasons. This country is rotten to the core after 10 years of these srseholes, both groups. I'm not sure which I hate most. I'll go with the politicians, cos Gloom seems okay. So does Bridget tbf, but she understandably dumped us!

Nails it.

I’ve spent the last 24hrs coughing my lungs inside out- rang 111 to see about getting tested (mainly due to my wife’s key worker status), and following two telephone interviews with two different doctors, one doesn’t think I have it, one does. 
On their advice, we tried to arrange to get the entire family tested- Mrs. F, me and the 12 & 9 yr olds.…

… Can’t arrange tests for under 18s online. 
 

Went on with the attempt, and the nearest testing centre available to us, in Forest Hall, North Tyneside is… any guesses?

So much for unnecessary journeys, then? Hope you're all, and will be, ok? 

[ewerk 30385]

Aye, fingers crossed for you. It’s no laughing matter at your age.
