no... why should NHS workers have a decent place to live? how dare they get people in to renovate their house when the poor lads could all be out fishing....

Would that not be down to ineffective PPE in the workplace as well as their own fault. Depending on their job inside the NHS, which could be admin staff for all we know, anyone on any ward has to do 2 covid tests at home per week. At least they do round my way, I'd assumed it's a universal thing and not site specific. So there really should be little risk of them taking it in and spreading it.
If they've had their first dose of the vaccine they also become less likely to pass it on.

you cant be surprised if people get sick in places where all the sick people get together can you? hospitals are not some SF movie just places where sick people go to...

Didn't say it wouldn't be from being in hospital mate. Just highlighted that precautions are taken on the staff. A lot of cases of covid are people catching it in hospital. The data is there to find.

I know precautions are taken I also knows doctors and nurses are being made to go into work showing symptoms.I know someone who was told she had tonsillitis not covid and to get on with her job.No shock to find she did have covid and had been in work for days with it

you should consider it as a very strong possibility yes... I am not saying that is ok, I am just stating what reality is! Not going to doctor/hospital for stupid reason or as a result of stupid behavior is imo at the moment more important than some other measures...

fair enough - the OP seemed to be taking issue with the essential nature of the work - a decent home for NHS staff is a higher priority than a lot of the other things i'm coming across, hence my sarcasm.
My mam (that's 'mum' to you lot) went in hospital for severe arthritic pain issues just before October Half Term. Then caught covid on the ward. Was moved to another hospital facility for isolation and then physio / pain treatment. Then moved out of there early december (to free up bed space) to a care home with the promise of physio visits - which are yet to happen.
now she's out of the NHS system and into the care system and we are looking at how the hell it's supposed to be paid for.
if the NHS wasn't so stretched because of poor government and selfish individuals then she might have been home before Christmas and actually have been treated.
even my patience is pushed to it's limit with this farce
edit - and if the people next door to me had builders / decorators wandering around with no masks or distancing I'd be reporting it.

I have done everything we have been told to do mate.I have not seen my mum for ages to protect her as I'm still working.Its just getting harder and harder to keep listening to all the doom and gloom.Once all the old and vulnerable have had the vaccine they should let us get on with it
