Interesting article Ray, and it shows also the side of journalists to be out of line, and essentially confuse patients.

This part.................Still, Ward says she would like to see more openness. “I know people working to advise the government are restricted in what they are allowed to share and I think that is a problem. We need as much transparency as possible,” she says.

Well we all get that, and I don"t believe for a second we are not being as transparant as we can. She highlights the situation and then creates over an issue which I for one understand

Again,.This part.................Still, Ward says she would like to see more openness. “I know people working to advise the government are restricted in what they are allowed to share and I think that is a problem. We need as much transparency as possible,” she says.

Well the fact is whoever is working in government whether they be Chief Medical Officer, Scients or Politicians must have restrictions and they as difficult as it is with the situation gaining apace must speak with absolute certainty on the same page, otherwise there would mass panic, and people will be none the wiser as to what to do. It is that kind of journalism which I spoke about earlier, unhelpful, fear mongering and considering we are just citizens of this country we must put our trust in the manner in which this is handled. Gradually gradually impose stricter modes of transport restrictions, think of the consequences of closing schools where parents will be inable to be a parent at all and funny thing is a couple of journalists currently on Sky News are talking the same language as me.

I guess many of you have seen a new advert from Cancer Research U.K., a cartoon version where this poor man recently diagnosed stands in alarm as the advise rolls out from all sorts. I can really relate to that when I was first diagnosed with cancer, the overload of information from doctors, and what is in effect advice that people close to you need to offer, can leave you in a state of absolute confusion. It is not helpful, it is overload and I can see similar things here with journalists and people who all know better than the people who do know better.

Lets get this right and IMHO wait for government spokesmen who are best positioned to advise us as one voice and no confusion which can only lead to panic.

The next few months will be tough. I have read previous NHS plans re pandemics and it's very scary when it comes to critical care capacity. There are 6 stages of planning critical care availability and at level 6 all critical care services are withdrawn ( no further capacity/ lack of drugs, equipment and or staff. Resources are then directed to patients who are less sick. Level 6 would be reached very soon. We have a wonderful NHS but it won't be able to keep pace with the volume nor have the specialised equipment available for use if the projected numbers become a reality. ALL elective admissions to ALL hospitals in the UK should have been cancelled weeks ago to enable both capacity and staff training in protective equipment. Most critical care units as I write this will be running at 90-100 percent occupancy due to current elective admissions working their way through the system. These current patients will "block" beds both in critical care and downstream hospital beds for weeks. Obviously some elective admissions would have been needed but to have continued with the majority "planned elective" was very poor planning. Most of us will get only mild symptoms so don't worry too much. Prevention is best ...so wash those hands !! Protect your elderly and vulnerable and stay at home during the peak and self isolate if ill. Spare a thought for hospital staff who will be working 12 hour shifts in protective equipment that is restrictive , claustrophobic and extremely hot. . Reckon I'm going to sweat afew pounds off in the next few months !!!

That"s the one who has being do my head in the last few days, lol GN

The share price has little interest atm , but there has been some very good posts regarding COVID 19. I hope we keep that up.

Opinions, opinions, I think Bermudas post sums it up very well.

Time will tell ATB

Inanaco, watching two different channells the Labour Party seems not be as aligned as you say.

Anyway, have a good weekend guys, and be safe.

Nom, I was surprised they allowed that to go ahead.....................but in the meantime there will be those who criticise evrything they are doing. I for one believe they are doing things in very good faith with the best advice possible.

We much need an oppsition opposing everything we are being told, the directives are getting clearer every day

Nom, are we now saying the Americans and Trump are calling this better than we are??

Very true, that is the way I am reading it.

lol............................

Hi Chester, nomlungu relies on that too. Waitrose who I normally use, have a 12 day delay in booking delivery spots.

Think I will have to get there very early, a friend is taking me, and just get the things I think I will need.

Nomlungu said they are no longer bringing the deliveries in to the home, I understand that.

So that is my reluctant plan, and then sit tight as I do normally.

My best to you and everybody here, I feel lucky, so many of you have so many more things to consider, so be as careful as you can. ATB

George has found the cure for COVID19!!! lol. GL

From CRUK.....................

https://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/cancer-in-general/coronavirus-and-cancer

this all has to be put into context ... which is why IMHO its the 20% that need isolating from the 80% (previous posting history)

Still hard to know which is which?

True, it almost seems as if we need more people to get COVID 19 before we can hope to see a resistance to it?? I s that correct?

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/13/coronavirus-what-happens-to-peoples-lungs-when-they-get-covid-19

Surely the manpower afforded to Scancell to continue work in the lbs, will also be delayed, in keeping with every form of busines that makes up our world??

It is those who are suffering now from cancer, in human trials and weak from certain treatments, I could cry for. It is hard enough to go through all that when times are ""normal"" and they are not!!

Well that was pretty damn obvious, TF

RE: Worth while Covid19 read11 Mar 2020 17:49
"""Isn"there something more important than what Trump thinks?? I actually believe in what our own Government is doing ATM. I was sent a text this morning from my Doctor saying the surgery is closed for now, and got a delivery of three anti-biotics that I takeevery day for cover.

I am sewlf isolating as the risk of the virus is too high for me, withheart failure, three serious respiratory conditions and periodic pneumonia attacks.

What really concerns me though is that treatment for cancer sufferers must be affected, recruiting patients for hospital trials must be on hold largely, and I think we have evry reason to see that relected in our share price as to delays in the SCIB1 trial.

On the positive side have we ever seen a time when so many countries are working for the same cause, and I am sure what they are learning on a daily basis will be instrumental in getting this outbreak more stable ASAP.

We can"t even imagine the work overload on governments around the world, and the fall out from this economically, lets hope we get some more positive news as soon as is practibally possible."""

It is a spooky time, feels really strange, I see all sports events have been cancelled now, and that is just for starters. Chester you are so right, we haven"t been a ""lucky company, by any means, lets hope that changes in future months.

I believe that is the last of a 500k line of shares that has been on the bid side for a few weeks. Hence the UT trades.

There is another 500k line at 5p, lets just hope we dont go there.
