Grassing up a Covid **** taker.

My partner is a GP. She didn't start doing remote consultations because of lockdown, there was no legal restraint on her patients coming to the surgery to see her, she did it because she didn't fancy dying of Covid.
Does she stop working every year during the flu season?Jasandjules said:

If I have not misheard, WHO have just noticed CV19 has an IFR significantly lower than Flu soooooo...I'll be hiding in my bunker while the Hysterical Brigade mull that over and start chucking abuse and sharp things at me.

A couple of Chinese ‘whistle blowers’ have said this was a deliberate attempt to introduce a lab produced unnatural agent into the population. I'll be hiding in my bunker while the Hysterical Brigade mull that over and start chucking abuse and sharp things at me.

Yet amazingly many other Professions who are dicing with a dose of Co-Ro are still managing to go to work every day...Leptons said:

With respect, has she considered another career path? Her job is to help the sick. She must have understood there would be risks when she took on the job, history is littered with such things, for example cholera and we know that was solved by Jon Snow who it seems did know something, but he put his neck on the line to find out.... . And now we have the advantage of PPE etc. and a lot more information and data.Jasandjules said:

If I remember rightly you’re a lawyer. Why aren’t you in Mexico prosecuting drug cartels? Rhetorical question of course, but people don’t sign up to become medics to take unnecessary risks with their life any more than lawyers do.
She was seeing those patients who needed it face to face all the way through lockdown and dealing with those who didn’t or who were suspected covid cases remotely. Like a sensible person trained in infection control would.

She goes to work every day, and was doing face to face consultations all the way through - just not unnecessarily. But go on, which professionals do you have in mind who specifically deal with sick people and don’t take covid precautions?otolith said:

Supermarket shelf stackers, Policemen, Firefighters, Paramedics, The Bloke down the petrol station.I don’t think any of those signed up to work through a Pandemic either but they were still there, with none if any Covid precautions.

Should be a quick shopping trip to Tesco or Aldi for Evan this week 
Can anyone explain how buying a kettle is more likely to result in me catching COVID than buying a bottle of Vodka?
How effective a measure are the road blocks in to Wales? Perhaps they should move the boundary back to Offa’s Dyke to keep out COVID?
I see Cardiff airport is still open so if we can’t drive we can still fly in, alongside all those nasty international COVID ridden travellers.
How about when the clocks go back tonight, will pubs shut at 9pm from now on or does COVID know about the time change?
Does anyone still believe that we are not being governed by half-wits?

What a stupid thing to say - which of those professions spend all day in a small room talking face to face with and examining (often very closely) a series of people who are only there because they are already ill ?
You really expect any of these "flu" bros to understand that? They're probably the ones sitting in their home office's through the day chatting crap on forums with no exposure to real world

You ‘’not flu’ bros really are deep thinkers that use their massive real world experience to post self-serving chatting crap on forums

There has never been a more apt use of the phrase; pot, kettle and black.They're probably the ones sitting in their home office's through the day chatting crap on forums with no exposure to real world
It is the people with exposure to the real world that can see what damage is being caused, financially, medically and mentally, to millions of people.

Quite the opposite, I’ve worked Almost everyday throughout the pandemic going in and out of peoples cars. They're probably the ones sitting in their home office's through the day chatting crap on forums with no exposure to real world
I’ve as much respect for a girl stacking shelves at Lidl than a GP examining someone. At least the GP had a heads up to why the person was there.
