Anyway update to my self isolation. Work desperately trying to get me in despite medical advice against it. We were short staffed and staff are either testing positive or having to isolate .
I work in a Nursing home. Now you know why Covid spread like wildfire in Spring when management aren’t behaving responsibly.

Your employers are clearly idiots, and would (surely) be breaking the law if they insisted on your returning there? I’d contact ACAS www.acas.org.uk/contact

I’d contact ACAS www.acas.org.uk/contactNo I got a message to self isolate from my NHS Covid app. The management are trying to find a way round it. Saying they don’t think I’ve got it from there (despite several staff coming down with it and being told not to say why they’re not in ) . Even suggesting that because I’ve been using PPE it should mean I’m ok. I wont be going in anyway.

I wouldn’t go in either, cheeky bastards, although I definitely would ask them to put any requests for you to go back into work in writing, for your own records etc. 100% guaranteed they won’t.

Nope fucking shite, it's not that I go out much anyway due to two young kids and I'm happy to stay at home with a few beers and a takeaway, but it's all the other shot that comes with it, panick buying at stores the queing up for ages again, plus I will still have to work through it anyway

Bollox going into another full lockdown The scientists and media got their way eventually. It won’t be them on the dole queues though.

We have already had quite a few positive tests back. They will definitely not close construction down though.

The media have been pushing for this though. Liverpool’s cases have fallen quite markedly. They’ve been in Tier 3 at least a week longer than greater Manchester. Surely it’s too soon to do a u turn just yet?

My one year old was sick this week, had major troubles breathing, wife and I both had something also. On the way to the hospital my boss calls me “your trainee called in sick and tested positive.” Luckily we all tested negative, back home now doing better. Big scare.

The media have been pushing for this though. Liverpool’s cases have fallen quite markedly. They’ve been in Tier 3 at least a week longer than greater Manchester. Surely it’s too soon to do a u turn just yet? Scientists recommended tighter restrictions two weeks ago in an effort to bring it back under control. The scientific community within the UK clearly prefer lockdown measures. Its really the only thing you can do without a vaccine and a vulnerable health service. The tier system like you say has worked but when you start putting every major city and town into tier 3 systems, your effectively in a full lock down anyway.
