I think it is more than just equipping and training staff. The last wave's data strongly suggested that key spreaders were: 1. mixing within the establishment - so physical isolation of the facilities is required and I would suggest that is a lot more than a locked door or a door with a "no entry" s...

It's a good point but it just needs to be credible rather than true given the lack of time for a defence or rebuttal to be made.

I seem to remember that last time, in the last few days, Trump or his allies disclosed the Hilary email scandal - with no opportunity for her to make a robust defence.

I've seen various secondhand reports, such as this from an FT comment "the study contains just 750 healthy over 70 year olds and 750 healthy 56-69 year olds out of a total of 30,000 participants. Given that they do not yet have a statistically significant read out for the 28,500 it is inconceivable...

Where did I say anything about stopping it spreading? Yes, I know it can also affect younger people too but one of the suggestions here is for a lockdown for those over 65. Given the age group that it affects the most and the numbers now in hospitals then I think it makes it sense to do that if the...
