The risk to the arrivals ideally needs to be zero especially if the arrivals have an at risk medical history which neither CO or their inspectors have any knowledge. I think nobody should come on to your property for inspection purposes unless there is reasonable suspicion you have been breaking the law or you call for help. In the absence of those obvious exceptions isolation should mean full isolation from everyone. Yes but they are trained with adequate PPE so hardly a parallel situation. You think the risk to someone swabbing people, some of whom might be positive and some who are proved to have previously been positive is less than someone standing at the garden gate?

ballaughbiker Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Quote You are talking absolute crap Maybe but luckily I and my medical issues don't have to rely on you for cross-infection risk and procedure. My interest in this subject started when I was (un)ceremoniously thrown out of theatre by the Surgeon Commander at RN Hospital Haslar after I absent mindedly scratched my nose through my mask having scrubbed up. That was 42 years ago and nothing has changed except for some new and very virulent nasties from which I don't want any risk at all. Zero. When we know more about this that may be subject to modification based on evidence not feelings.🙄 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am genuinely interested because to my mind the risk is as close to zero as you can get Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow They didn't stand at the garden gate unfortunately. Those taking swabs will have PPE and standard procedure.

So do you not think if the people who came to check on you needed, or even might possibly need, ppe they would have been provided with it? What on earth do you think the risk is? Its surely much lower than the staff on checkouts in shops? Edited January 30, 2021 by horatiotheturd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horatiotheturd Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Where would you imagine has a border policy that balances risk/reward better than we do? How about Rwanda. Fair play to them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to step away from those high risk activities. What on earth were you thinking opening the fridge? 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, obviously not the lovely soft European variety, that is essentially harmless in any form of impact, but can only be imported now through Northern Ireland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
