Ditto my wife Gaz, without the drip she's in a lot of pain, with it her immune system is shot to pieces, rock and a hard place situation.

Its getting very very scary indeed., she has to go for the drip unless they cancel (which of course in one way we hope they don't) and it will be the first time she has been outside for 3 weeks (we started the 'old and vulnerable farts' lockdown a week early when it was fiorst mentioned)


I've got my next session in 2 weeks so I have to take my samples and have a blood test next week. I don't want to go to the hospital because of the obvious dangers, if I caught it I'd have little chance but the worse thing would be to bring it home to my wife and daughter. I'm not ashamed to say I'm scared .

My wife got her blood test results yesterday so she's all go for her infusion next week. I just hope they've reduced the number of chairs in the rooms they use to ensure a safe distance etc. She'll be there 2.5 to 3 hours, I'll be sat in the car worried sick.

My wife takes me then picks me up but this time I'm thinking of going alone. To be honest I'm seriously thinking of talking to them about cancelling this treatment even though it will effect my health I think it's more important to protect my wife and daughter.

I wouldn't have thought that either will be in too much trouble. Johnson not too old and Hancock looks healthy enough. In the unlikely event that either has a bad reaction and requires ventilation, my guess is that they won't have too many problems finding a bed.

I wonder how many others in government have it already? I'd advocate testing them to be sure that none are infecting others without realising it as there will be a lot of important meetings taking place.


The chief medical officer self isolating as well, the three of them look like they haven’t followed the advice they are so ready to dish out , with Johnson in particular and his shaking hands is ok nonsense being the worse.
All three should be sent home to live on £94 a week sick pay until they are fully recovered like the rest of the country, they are lucky they will now be able to claim it from day  1. It will save the exchequer a few quid.
Lets hope they all recover soon anyway

You're clearly not bitter that the Tories won the last election then.

I like the majority of the UK didn’t vote for this shower, but accept that is how our democracy works. What has that got to with suggesting that someone saying we are all in this together suffers the same fate as everyone else? if they expect others to try and survive on a pittance let them try it.
Johnson has delayed, missed opportunities to act and been blaze about shaking hands and safe distancing, should no one point this out? His delays will cost lives, it doesn’t matter what Party he leads(I marched in protest against the invasion of Iraq when Labour were in power) he is letting us down as this report from the Lancet shows

Or how they value the safety of those we expect to be on the front Line

Hancock was filmed walking out a building side by side with his aid who passed him a coffee he then passed it back and then puts his hand on his own face.

So he has not being doing the instructions they keep telling us.

My concern is that we may be getting a combination of incompetence and dishonesty. We didn't join the EU scheme to source additional ventilators. A spokesman for No. 10 initially said this was because we had made other plans. This was then 'corrected' to say that we missed the email telling us about it, but apparently Hancock mentioned we were going to be involved in the scheme on Question Time over a week ago. What is the truth?

Sourcing more ventilators is quite literally something which would save lives. So what's the truth? Did they just decide to try and go it alone? If so, why, and if so, why lie about it and claim we missed out due to an error? The election campaign was one full of lies so my guess is that this is just a continuation of that but if not, the incompetence is unforgivable.

Eirher way, it doesn't exactly instill confidence.

The way Italy is still reporting high numbers and Spain not far behind, we might be better going alone. Ventilators are quite simple and you can treat multiple patients from one machine if you absolutely need to. We have increased capacity by securing the use of private hospitals and St Hugh's locally will be one of them. Our stated number of ventilators did not include anaesthesia machines which are used for surgery.
