Be grateful that you live in a country that:
1) Only tests people in Acute Care.... so no-one actually knows (especially the scientists making the "decisions") who may or may not have the disease.
2) Has fewer acute care beds per 1,000 of the population than basket cases like Greece & Italy (etc, etc)
3) Has just 5,000 ventilators for the whole country.
4) Has left its borders open to incoming flights (with no checks of any kind) from parts of the World with dire infection rates.
5) Despite "Brexit", has developed no internal production for essential medical items (eg, surgical masks)
6) Has a PM who failed to declare that his latest flousey was up the spout when he called GE, and, thus, that he would be on "Paternal Leave" just when Brexit would be due to explode - oh, and also, now that Covid-19 is an issue.
7) Has an NHS that has been ripped apart by 10 years of a callous administration who want to kill the poor and mentally ill.
Has Capitalism to solve all problems of State.
9) Had a PM (Thatcher) who declared that "society is dead".
10) That has a massive death rate from Sepsis..... And Sepsis is an inevitable result of Covid-19 morbid state. (Guess which column the numbers will be added to?)
11) Had a huge number of "Covid-19 at risk" people vote for Brexit.... Brexit means we now have no priority for EU developed vaccine, and are outside of EU-co-ordinated medical research.
12) Has a stiff-upper-lip, and still regards a "full-English Breakfast" as the cure-all for all foreign diseases.
13) Has a Lottery Ticket that says: "Unlucky for 20% of the UK population. We want you to get ill and die." The ages of the contributors to this message board mean we will lose a few. Stay safe!
Goodness. I must have been on drugs when I wrote this. I have since learnt that the UK is the envy of the World. Please can someone give me a jolt on the head to wake me up? (Applications by post, email, telephone accepted. All calls incur a 35p surcharge. Anyone responding is certified as insane).
