My Local Hospital is so Underwhelmed...

If its the Queens in Romford Injera i can confirm your post.A friend of mine works there as a porter and he tells me the nurse's are just sitting around chatting.The A@E is deserted and their is so little work for the porters they are told to go home well before the end of their shifts.

Sussex twizzle. Commuter town serving A LOT of people. Really strange..

Interesting to hear it’s happening elsewhere.

A&E is a demand led service,there is a good chance most around the country are quiet but you cant shut them down because you dont know whats coming

Same in my area, many miles north.

Not saying shut them down but the narrative we are getting from the media that the hospitals are being overrun just is not true.

Absolutely twizzle

Gov are running the media,nothing positive or the masses will be out and about too early.......

Ive wondered for a while what a lot of NHS staff are doing. Gps for example who seem to have given up seeing people but if pushed may begrudgingly talk to you over the phone for a couple of minutes.

When Numbers drop , I would suggest the Nighingales being used where available to treat C19 ,

Dedicated c19 staff etc , people not attending hospitals due to fear of virus ... Plus 

would stop the spread in main hospitals ..

I've been writing in this context on the forum for ages, but this elevation of anyone connected to the NHS to god like ststus is an extremely dangerous narrative in my view. The crisis is being leveraged by the left for all its worth. There ARE some true heroes in the NHS, but the rest are just hanging off their coat tails. The people who do the true graft and are putting themselves on the line are not taking to twitter, sky news or insta.

You don't fall into the NHS by accident, it's by choice. Once in it, it's a job for life and a gold plated pension that most other people outside of public services could dream of.

Spot on Cider.If you dare not to go outside on a Thursday to clap people regard you as the devil incarnate.

Can you please provide a link to a media report claiming that hospitals are being overrun.

It's beyond me the whole clap for carers saga. It amounts to emotional blackmail. Of course now companies have to be seen to be joining in with the virtue signalling so every second ad on the telly now links into NHS workers.

Nobody is mentioning that test capacity isn't being used because the self isolating NHS staff aren't turning up for them. Even though the media narrative was tens of thousands wanting tests so they could get back to the 'front line'.

The general perception and the perception the media wants us to believe is that the NHS are being swamped.Its simply not the case.

Been saying it for weeks but we're being mocked on the biggest scale we've ever experienced in my opinion

They ain't even hiding it , you can find all the evidence you need within minutes

'Sixteen of the 29 new deaths in England are in London amid fears the city would need to go on full lockdown.'

'As the UK's official death toll hit 144, medical chiefs warned smaller hospitals could struggle and some had been forced to move Covid-19 patients elsewhere.



That piece looks weeks old, twizzle.

There's something else at play, they ain't daft so why are they allowing people to stay at home and find all this stuff out?

Or it could be the right guys are running it and are exposing the lies and it runs much much much deeper than this virus

Even Carl Froch was questioning this along with round earth and 9/11 the other day

I didn't do a lot of research on that one saddo.The fact remains we are led to believe the NHS is at maxiumum capacity.Its the perception that's important.

Froch also questioned the space stations and nasa

Something is in the air that's for sure

Even Novak Djockovic has come out and said he ain't taking no vaccine

Even Novak Djockovic       


He's an anti vaxxer, of course he won't take it, he won't be playing either.

Good for him I say, he's gone up in my estimation

As for you...

Off point but i would still like to be told why half a million a month passengers are still being allowed to walk off planes at Heathrow and straight into our communities without any checks whatsoever.The Government line that " its a small risk" doesn't hold water.We are expected to stay indoors and isolate.The Government are fcking hypocrites.

There's been lots of filming in foreign hospitals. Repeat footage from New York, Lombardi, Madrid. The never ending PPE narrative. Filming in UK care homes (edited like a horror movie). Filming of GP hot zones. Oxygen crisis in Watford etc. It all helps to create an alarmist narrative. Ross Kemp is apparently reporting from a UK hospital, but I've not seen it.

agreed Twizle -2 mates came back from Sydney 2 weeks ago- getting out of OZ had its problems - but they and the passengers just breezed in - no checks- no advice re quarantine or self isolation etc - they just went to the car and drove home via shopping trip to top up the larder.
The current situation is a total farce

Lockdown? there isn't one

Yet the death rates are dropping and the infection cases are slowing, yet there's no lock down, the food is stocked in supermarkets meaning the ships are still bringing it in and the lorries are arriving at the supermarkets

No fuel shortage either. Its one big con for vaccines.

oh - on topic- Margate hospital did a pacemaker day op  for my mates 92 year old dad on Friday - he was the only patient on the ward and was done and dusted quickly - rested up - in isolation for a few hours and - still no other patients  when discharged late afternoon.

lmfao try telling that to numpties like n east

Its a joke that nurses are allowed to prat about dancing and no one questions it

I give it another 2 weeks, lets get to the 4th May (bank holiday), we'll see where we are then

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-52353942

Banning cars? pollution aided the virus? getting the message yet?

Could be that people are putting off going to the hospital because they are worried about catching the virus or don't want to be a burden thinking hospitals are currently overwhelmed or the hospital has put back appointments a while ago amid the expectation of a sudden influx of patients.

Received a text from a nurse 10 mins ago who works at UCLH.
"No covid patients on ventilators today..only 110 covid patients on wards.Huge decrease.They are even talking about recovery now.I feel going down the curve now.Fingers crossed end in sight.XX"

tell your boyfriend to get back to work twizzle

nice post/ news T
lets hope so

Really stretching with that ffs

I've no idea, but it's possible, hospitals in general are not usually not busy are they? if people are saying they are now, there has to be a reason.

injera - please name the hospital in your OP thanks

Haven adding exactly fck all to the discussion as per

SontaranStratagem we know your eager to gt back to your 100 challenge & its 796th attempt PATIENCE! PATIENCE! PATIENCE!

796?

That's a lie its not even 200 yet but I'm sure I'd get to that attempt with practice

hospitals have closed all non urgent lists so they have capacity for corona

staff freed up, and beds.

Yeah course they have

So people are dying all over of whatever then? so how come the death figures aren't spiking then?

If there's a virus on top of all these other deaths where's the spike?

non urgent

hospitals and icu are not the same all resources were put into icu to stop it been overwhelmed and skelton straff elsewhere,its not been kept a secret ,news bulletins from hospitals showing,tslking about wards over than icu,corona been empty,quiet
obviously they didn't plan for the right wing knuckledraggers not to work out for themselves that if schools were shut, millions of workers laid off,roads empty,no sport,no leisure.noi kids playing outside,everyone confined to their house the pressure/use of A and E,would be greatly reduced,along with people fearful of catching virus in hospital so staying away,
I,m sure in future the messaging will take into account who fooooking stupid the knucklegraggers are

Which contradicts the whole thing 1tp

They said they would overwhelmed but haven't been, in fact nurses are sat on their backsides thinking up new dance routines

they said icu would be overwhelmed  if they didn't divert all resources to corona wards and icu and implement lockdown, and they did and it hasn't,obviously 25,000 deaths helps

leaving old folk to die in care homes kept the hospital  beds free too.

Imfao PRH Haywards Heath.

The old folk were obviously the fall generation

I think something else is up and the older generation can't be allowed to share their experiences ie how to be self sufficient with gardens etc

But something else is playing out behind the scenes that's for sure, I still think there's a slight chance this whole vaccine and RFID chips are smoke and mirrors, look here no over there

Who knows

The point as far as I'm concerned is that the vast majority of NHS employees are not superheroes, they're doing the job they're employed to do. I do acknowledge there will be a raised fear factor for the minority for those taking care of the patients who are covid 19 positive, that however comes with their chosen job/career, like police during the riots or fireman at Grenfel. There is a concerted effort to make the whole of the NHS workforce out to be superhero martyrs and I believe it's a very dangerous approach.

their the world champions at breaking social distancing rules whilst on live tv,

Including nurses, yup.

if we end up with 10,000 dead in care homes and another 14,000 over 65,s in hospital,in 12 months time doris might claim it as his oven ready social care plan, ,
,my dads 96 and he did say to me 3 months ago of I thought it was a cull of the elderly,theres to many of us

I didn't laugh because in the financial crisis he said he wasn't surprised because years earlier he went with my sister to a well known bank she wanted a mortgage he was putting savings in
she got a mortgage at 5.5 % and he got 6% on his savings,he asked them how the fooook does that work,

Culling of the old but a culling of the rest of us with war?

The old get left to die we just get blown to pieces, joining them on the other side a bit later

i got a mortgage at 0.21% and 10% on my savings

seemed like a crash was bound to happen.




with a government struggling for a solution to pensions and care homes , it might be argued that
a cull was overdue ....

calling it operation last gasp was a dead giveaway too....

People staying away for fear of the virus?

Yes, my favourite piece of irony  was the BBC talking to a surgeon, on a hospital ward, he was stating his concerns that people with serious conditions were staying away from hospitals for fear of the virus, after a thank you doctor, the same reporter moved straight on to the hospitals ICU
to show virus patients gasping for air and looking moments from death.
