Send them an email and a letter to DAs home address and then it can really be complained about when they do nothing. Easier to ignore a tweet. Or pick up the phone to Henrietta quickly followed by an open email to DA and her, cc the CM? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can't sequence the genomes without having the samples to sequence them from, can she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently emailed the same people offering to fully fund a contact tracing app (aware they'd refused a similar offer for a tracing app last year), they didn't reply. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will if it is copied to the press. But, a conversation with Dr Ewart may facilitate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like we’ve had it so bad compared with other jurisdictions over the last COVID-19 year. ( Nothing to do with the way the Government has acted and handled the situation of course. Just luck I guess) What have they done that was good? They closed the borders, sent people to prison and made no attempt to actually look at risks and come up with positive ways of allowing some normality whilst taking relevant precautions. They dodged criticism (burnt letters), they ignored the very obvious requirement to introduce testing, they sacked off an antibody testing program half way through. They failed to adequately support businesses and failed to take advantage of many opportunities to become world leaders and boost our international profile. They kept people from their families and are about the only place in the world where in lockdown an elderly person who lives on their own can't form a support bubble and must live in total isolation. They failed to implement track and trace. They accepted MBE's and enjoyed the limelight and mini celebrity status. They led us back into a totally avoidable lockdown, screwed up the vaccination rollout, and have made a woman who has just come back from a hospital in Liverpool having had a heart attack isolate on her own for no good reason. Remind me of what they did well? Yes we were "covod free" for a while but only by taking very draconian and obvious steps. No clever thinking at all.

No decision yet, It hinges on whether we have any cases crop up over the weekend, hopefully by Monday’s press conference we should know either way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
