Alarming reading @dgurdasani1!
More areas with hospitals that are overwhelmed.
Exhausted & frustrated drs & nurses are working flat out whilst cases surge & admissions & deaths rise significantly. They must feel like firefighters tackling a forest fire with small garden hoses! https://twitter.com/dgurdasani1/status/1344774597351190528
EVERY science/public health expert & medic is saying that current measures/ #Tiers are NOT ENOUGH, esp if #schools start to open in TWO DAYS w/out increased safety measures. The mixing of 1000s of kids indoors w/out #masks & inadequate space to socially distance will equate to ...
...pouring a can of petrol on the #Covid19 flames!
The crisis will rapidly & uncontrollably turn into a catastrophe, affecting ALL age groups across ALL of the UK.
WE MUST ACT NOW-national #lockdown is needed!
#Schools must remain closed for all but key worker/vulnerable kids.
Politicians, educators & parents must accept that current #DfE advice IS INADEQUATE & UNSAFE, especially w/ this highly transmissible variant. It won’t be just pupils, #teachers & families that’ll be affected if they don’t.
#BritishExceptionalism in this context is v dangerous.
Anything less in the face of such overwhelming evidence is unforgivable WILFUL NEGLIGENCE!
Sustainable, safe education to last several months should be planned for all.
#LateralFlowTests won’t save us if schools remain unsafe. #MasksInClassrooms, #blendedlearning, #ventilation...
Prioritise frontline f2f healthcare professionals for the #CovidVaccine using advised 3w schedule.
Vaccinate #teachers/school staff urgently.
“Ramp up” vaccination program aiming for 24/7 delivery.
Strongly reinforce public health messaging.
#HandsFaceSpace. SAFE #mask use.
#SackSerco & fix the vital #FTTIS system!
Supported isolation is key. Hotels are empty-use them!
Border controls need effective public health measures, not the flimsy, “chocolate fire guard” efforts we have now.
Such tough times require even tougher measures!
