"We got a decision that is not competent, certainly negligent, and a betrayal of health care workers.
@BMA_NI's Dr Tom Black says Northern Ireland should be placed in a national lockdown, rather than the circuit breaker extended by a week.

Strong warnings from across our Health & Social Care system on the scale of current pressures, those messages are being heard loud & clear.
Thanks to all our health workers across the entire system and their families, for all you are doing, it is appreciated. – at Northern Ireland, United Kingdom

Let me assure the doubters- false positives don’t cause hospitalisations, non-viable virus doesn’t cause hospitalisations, and we have excellent tests for distinguishing Covid from other viral illnesses. Anyone who told you differently in the summer is now utterly discredited.

And important reminder for wives:
👉🏼Voter intimidation is illegal even if it's your husband👈🏼
👉🏼Your vote is no one's business but your own👈🏼
Lie to him about how you vote if you have to in order to avoid his abuse.
Also Jesse, Jesus does not say to force your wife to do things

Germany reported 14,964 new covid cases & 42 deaths in past 24hrs - and just announced a new national lockdown.
The UK reported 24,701 new cases & 310 deaths in past 24hrs - and hasn't.
Is @BorisJohnson's dithering leading us into another disaster?

After 2 weeks of multiple health screens and asking everyone to quarantine, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private island where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.

Reality all Europe incl UK. Hospitals in Belgium requested that doctors & nurses who test positive for Covid-19, continue to work if they have no symptoms. Acknowledged risk but left with no choice in order to avoid hospital system collapsing within days. bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-54689…
