The Old Git Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Back at the height of our pandemic the one person I know who had tested positive with mild symptoms stayed in a separate bedroom at home, and the bathroom and kitchen were thoroughly disinfected after each use. it is possible to do it conscientiously. Having worked with his wife for over 30 years I know what she's like. People at work were always complains that the phones and calculators were always smelling of disinfectant.

Apple Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 6 hours ago, Apple said: ITV news this morning reporting that Houses of Commons will not have to adhere to 10pm curfew. Apparently not now, claims the BBC news. That was another quick turnaround. Phew! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anecdotes eh? Well if you don’t share a house it’s easy, we’re self isolating at present but as only us in house it’s easy with Tesco & Iom creamery delivering. if test on Friday negative then can get out walking & shopping for essentials.

Nom de plume Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 42 minutes ago, Cambon said: They were talking about it on TV this morning. The person said that of the 42,000 who died, only 309 were under 60 and without pre existing medical conditions. 309 that had Covid in the 28 days preceding their demise. That statistic alone is mind blowing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.K. Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 4 hours ago, Apple said: The issue is about choice. All the analysis and modelling and science etc needs to be aired in public and let everyone choose the decisions they have to make for themselves. Too many decisions being made behind closed doors and then skulking away and staying quiet when it gets a bit contraversial. Hmmmm. The HoC will be debating whether the Bozo/Cummings etc cabal can carry on making up policy on the hoof or should it be the MP's in the HoC doing it.

Tynwald should also be debating whether Howie & ashie can carry on doing the same thing so we can see why he’s making these decisions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hissingsid Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The whole of Comin makes the decisions not just the Chief Minister and the Health Minister and so far they have been spot on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hissingsid Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The CM always states the decision has been taken by the Council of Ministers. They have done a brilliant job so far as most sane people will agree. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well ... as we'll never see the minutes on who is saying what & who is advising & what that advice is nobody can judge whether they've done a brilliant job or not. If you mean they've kept Covid out then yes, stirling work. If you think keeping the Island with restricted access for as long as it takes is good policy then others might say it's horrific.

Howie has a majority with his mates on Comin and not everyone agrees with you. could say UK cabinet makes decisions as well so why does Boris need more scrutiny? Howie & ashie need close questioning from Tynwald particularly Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
