No evidence of UK health workers being routinely tested yet. Strange that the media doesn't ask "is the reason you are not Test,Test,Testing because you effectively ran out of tests weeks ago and only had enough left for seriously ill patients?"

time nhs got brutal told the truth,
if young nhs workers not in high risk area with no or mild symptons treating patients almost cerrainly infected are going to have to carry on working, and maybe self isolate in the 1000,s of empty hotels to avoid spreading it amongst theit family, brutal but as in Italy nhs cant afford to lose 1000,s of nhs workers if they test positive |

More than a million people have signed a petition calling for NHS staff to be prioritised for coronavirus testing so they can continue to work.
Junior doctor Rebecca McCauley, who started the petition to health secretary Matt Hancock, said all NHS workers, including cleaners who are "the unsung heroes", are facing a dilemma at work. She said it is common to get a cough in March, but as they would not know if it is COVID-19 without a test they have to either stay off work for seven days or go to work and potentially spread coronavirus to sick patients. The petition called on health secretary Matt Hancock to test frontline NHS staff for COVID-19 as a priority Dr McCauley said: "Currently, tests are only being done on patients who require hospital admission. "This virus will cause minor symptoms for most people, and relatively young and healthy staff are most likely to fall into that category. "The issue is the patients we treat are not healthy, they are frail and vulnerable. "Ask yourself this - if your loved one needs hospital care for a condition not related to COVID-19, would you want them to be treated by staff who are likely infected with it? . https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-a-million-people-demand-nhs-workers-get-priority-testing-11960604 |

most hospitals are segregating the corona patients the person your treating has it your not infecting them,in and out ,moving around you have ppe on practicing social distancing with patients as far as possible,all very difficult,but noit as difficult as 1000p,s of nhs workers at home with little or no symptons but tested positive, and as I keep screaming even a negative test is only a snapshot in time, if its as contagious as they say even with ppe working 12/15 hour shifts with the most infected patients highly unlikely you,ll avoid having it at some point,

Working NHS staff deserve to be paid double. They are putting their life at risk, while half the country will be sitting at home being paid over £500 per week. Could you blame anyone for simply not turning up to work. Massive respect to all of them.

1TP - as I keep screaming even a negative test is only a snapshot in time, if its as contagious as they say even with ppe working 12/15 hour shifts with the most infected patients highly unlikely you,ll avoid having it at some point,
- this point is not being more widely mentioned. Why? |

ive no idea, but nhs ,mp,s media are putting it out there it will increase nhs numbers free some self isolating for whatever reason but testing negative,but surely even the biggest idiot in the world can see its more likely to stand more nhs workers down who test positive,
the fooooking evidence is there 7,000 Italian health workers testing poisitive irony is there,ll be some nhs workers out there who are feeling fine,mild symptons if theie stood down for a positive test be screaming on media,social media I,m fine let me back to work I,m summising after failing a test only another negative test frees you for work,when do they do that after 1,2,3,4 weeks keep testing wasting millions of test kits confirming 1st test,even after peak this going on for a year minimum amongst nhs workers,probably even worse after peak as nhs workers will be moving back in to area,s of not infected patients through out the system no easy answer,s |
