I think it’s bullshit. Maybe it’s very different depending on area. A friend of mine last week who does some shifts on ICU said it’s a very different place to what it was in January. She said there aren’t many people on ventilators due to covid, most of them being admitted are coming in for another reason and just happen to test positive. We’re also getting a lot more older people in the community who have just been discharged after being admitted for “covid” and then when I ask them about it I find out that it wasn’t due to covid at all… usually UTI or something and they happened to test positive on admission despite having no covid symptoms!This is surely bullshit? I have a friend who works in the NHS and literally a week ago I spoke to her and she said they have empty beds they can’t fill because of covid. As in they are on covid wards but they don’t have the patients so they are empty. I’m done with the NHS fearmongering, if they can’t cope with winter pressures it’s funding and bleeping appalling middle management, it is NOT people enjoying their basic human rights after being scared into jab upon jab and mask upon mask and missing out monumental life events.
