If you watch the opening titles of The Office, the camera pans from Slough Public Library to Slough College, and in the background, in the far distance is a first-floor window where my father spent the best part of three years staring out and every thirty seconds angrily demanding the staff give him tablets.

Always took the edge off the comedy for me.

The funny thing with my dad was that he was perfectly lucid, could speak all his languages, and all the very old memories were there - we could still laugh bitterly at West Tip's fall in the National when we were on at 20/1. The trouble was, we re-told the story literally every two minutes, because he would have long forgotten that we'd just talked about it.

It might just have been possible to look after him, but he decided to become a medical patient in his head. A full-time hypochondriac, with a mission to convince the world he needed looking after. So he'd pestered my mother for tablets non-stop, wake her up continually to tell her he was ill, etc. A right mess of a situation.

Probably about the time that Kate Bingham, the woman who ordered these drugs for HM Government, spoke to the Financial Times:

“Ms Bingham said vaccination policy would be aimed at those “most at risk” and noted that vaccinating healthy people, who are much less likely to have severe outcomes from Covid-19, “could cause them some freak harm”, potentially tipping the scales in terms of the risk-benefit analysis.”

“David Nabarro, special envoy to the World Health Organization on Covid-19, also told the FT that addressing the coronavirus crisis was “not going to be a case of everyone getting vaccinated”. He added: “There will be a definite analysis of who is the priority for the vaccine, based on where they live, their occupation and their age bracket. “We’re not fundamentally using the vaccine to create population immunity, we’re just changing the likelihood people will get harmed or hurt. It will be strategic.””

Thank you George, yes the lesser spotted GP, not been seen for a couple of years but managed a call back phone call. To be fair she was really helpful, shame they can't still be seen unless an emergency or worse.

... just sat behind a desk is correct, as I said before I took my mother for a blood test the other day and the receptionist was sat behind a sign saying all appointments had to made by telephone.! It was like trying to get into Brinks Mat,with some patients having to speak through a gap in the window with prescriptions being passed out,utter madness, it's like they have gone on a nuclear war procedure.

I can sympathise with your experience. Over 2 years ago i was staying in a Heathrow airport hotel and suffered pain in my stomach one evening, so much so i had to lay on the lounge sofa while the receptionist called the ambulance service. They insisted on speaking with me and after explaining my symptoms, told me they would try to get to me in a couple of hours. !

The receptionist was really caring and explained that on a Friday night (it was only around 23.00) hospitals are full of alchohol/fight related cases. She called me a taxi, the journey took about 10 minutes to Hillingdon hospital where to be fair i was seen reasonably quickly and treated after about 45 mins. 

As for doctors, a few weeks back i wanted to make a doctors appointment where i live just outside München, I popped in on my way to work just before 08.00 expecting one later that day. I saw a doctor and was out before 09.00.

The GP crisis started well before Covid - it started way back when Labour did a crazy "deal" with them and has obviously got worse since with 10 years of austerity from the Tories.

There are 21 GP's at my local Health Centre and from their "meet the team" page you can see that 7 of them work 2 days a week and 9 of them work 3 days a week.

I get a text from the surgery every week basically saying don't come here or call us! - I attended an appointment for a cortisone/steroid injection (painkiller) a few weeks ago - Had a 15 minute wait in the reception - 5 ladies sat around, laughing, joking, drinking coffee.

There were two practices round here working from the same building, or ''Health Village' as they laughingly call it. One of them, mine, was so poor that the google reviews were just getting out of hand. Instead of removing people they simply merged the two, all the wrong uns still there but now treating (or not, currently) people from both practices. They can do what they like.

Alcohol (and the fighting/accidents it causes) is the main drain on A&E Andrew.

But you can compound that problem by having the misfortune to feel unwell in the evening or at the weekend.

The body representing GP's bit the government negotiators hand off when they were offered to stop being on call or working evenings/weekends in exchange for a £6k pay cut (at the time that £6k represented just a 6% pay cut). Then they got a 60% pay rise in the following 3 years! Laugh

Moral of the story - Don't get ill in the evening or at the weekend. They might as well change the recorded message during those times to: "There is nobody here at the moment - Please call back when you are feeling better."

George if you were in charge of this pandemic what would you have done??.....let it run wild seems to be your choice of what to do
By:

When: 23 Nov 21 12:34
portmanpark, the government had a pandemic plan that had been carefully thought out over many years, and one based on an event of up to 300,00 deaths.

None of this plan involved destroying businesses and jobs, disrupting education, and placing millions of healthy people under house arrest.

But for some reason it was the path they chose to go down, apparently because communist and authoritarian China told them lockdowns worked.

As for their original pandemic response plan, the one that had been carefully thought out, I think it's roughly the path Sweden went down, and they're doing pretty well at the moment.

The government spends about £213.4 billion a year on health care, principally our NHS. That's over 20% of all government spending (or, more frighteningly, over 26% of all tax receipts). Our NHS employs 1,400,000 people, five per cent of the entire UK workforce.

Whatever's ailing it, it's not austerity.

As regards what the government should have done regarding Covid, the answer is to follow the plan it and every other government in the world bar the People's Republic of China had ready and waiting - offer support for anyone vulnerable who wants it, otherwise keep calm and carry on. Because there's nothing else the state actually can sensibly do. What it shouldn't have done is rip that plan up on the hoof because Dominic Cummings had drawn a graph and kicked the door down yelling, "Ban everything we're all going to die."
