Yes. If anyone liked the sound of his own voice (because it’s the only one he hears) it’s TK. In one word: Prolix 

 

 

[Rico1304]

Here’s the actual remit of the CMO. Making TKs entire post a waste of time. 
 

The chief medical officer is the country’s most senior medical adviser, providing advice to the secretary of state for health and, when necessary, the prime minister. The CMO is also the head of the public health profession and represents it within government.

The role has three overarching responsibilities: to provide independent advice on public health issues, in particular during public health emergencies; to recommend policy changes to improve public health outcomes; and to act as an interface between the government and medical researchers and clinical professionals.

The CMO plays a prominent role in supporting the government’s response to public health emergencies. Alongside ministers, the CMO is responsible for keeping the public informed on health issues of high public concern and explaining the government’s response. 

The CMO has a statutory duty to produce an annual report on the state of public health and to support work to improve public health across England. This provides both a survey of public health, and a detailed analysis of one or more specific public health issue, where the CMO believe policy intervention is required.

The CMO represents the UK international on public health issues and in global health institutions such as the World Health Organization (WHO).

Good day to bury bad news...

 

'Taxpayers will lose tens of billions of pounds to Covid-19 support schemes because the government dropped basic fraud checks and rolled out the programmes in haste, a parliamentary report has claimed.

 

The report, published by the public accounts committee (PAC), acknowledged that the government acted quickly to provide vital support to vulnerable businesses at the start of the pandemic. However, the decision to prioritise speed and financial aid meant taxpayer exposure to fraud and error was “significantly increased”.

 

The PAC blames the government’s twin decisions to relax the usual fraud controls in programmes such as the popular bounce-back loan scheme (BBLS) – which allowed companies to self-declare information such as earnings as part of their applications – and to support businesses and individuals it had no previous relationship with.

 

According to figures released by the business department, the combined impact of fraud and defaults will mean that nearly half of the £46.5bn bounce-back loans distributed during the pandemic will never be repaid.'

We have a very good friend spending her last couple of days in Marie Currie in Woolton. Visitors now limited to one person, one hour per day. Maximum of two nominated visitors.

All to protect the patient from Covid?

Visitors must have negative result each visit.

Seriously, no-one can explain that logic to me.

Meanwhile, let's go to Wembley to hug and kiss our each other after our magnificent victory.

So fuckin wrong.

Much like Gove and his Portuguese jolly, these are 'Trial' events and are to be enacted whenever it is inconvenient for minsters to follow the rules, or politically advantageous.

 

See the new 'Billionaire Pathway' where captains of industry can avoid quarantine because they're just to too goddamn important to follow the same rules as everybody else.

Exactly. Saw a similar story on BBC news yesterday. Dying son allowed very few visitors, depression, stress anxiety as he awaited his relatively short time on earth. Family followed all the rules then saw nick fuckin handjob and his shit.

Fuck me, as a parent you would risk anything for your children. It's just wrong burying a child. Can do without this other shit 

[DalyanPete]

Anyway, my restrictions end at 22.00 tonight. Still mandatory mask at all times away from home. Hard work in current 38 degrees.

Yeah , have a nephew who got over £30k and blew it on a couple of cars. He is a one man limited company working on an ad hoc basis on the rigs and I can't see how he is ever going to pay it back.

Everything's subservient to the Almighty Covid these days, even terminal cancer. It would be funny if we weren't talking about people's lives here. This is what happens when you prioritise quantity of life over quality of life. It is unimaginably tragic.

Exactly, if the family came up positive they wouldn't visit. The staff are distraught with the decision.
