https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/health/sanctuary-ccg-be-set-provide-benchmarks-medical-care-migrants-and-refugees-3050851Dr Dan Roper, chair of the Hull CCG Board, told members the status would mean the body would provide benchmarks for how it offers medical care to migrants and refugees.
... which tells me that they're basically to be given guidelines/training on what to do in the case of migrants using the hospital. Right-wing twitter: "*spit* OH MY GOD, THEY'RE BEING GIVEN THEIR OWN HOSPITAL *froth*" - which was not said at any point in the article. I would try and point it out to them, but I know how these people tend to be averse to facts.

At being shit. Just wait till we pile the Brexit catastrophe on top of that. Worldbeating self-harm. |

From reading that, they could have made things so much easier to begin with just by saying people are expected to be sat at a table. |

You wonder if this 'dramatic drop' in cases is due to lower numbers being tested to make things look better

Lots of excitement in Bristol because the army are prepping a vaccination centre ahead of any approval.
Nice to see progress knowing that there's a way to go still.

A clearer indicator would be a percentage of those tested.

and that's the point I've been making. This shouldn't really have been about opening times, or food orders etc. It should always have been about risk management - you reduce capacity and insist on the use of a table, with no swapping or moving amongst tables. That solves the problem which was always the mingling aspect of stand-up pubs. They may well have screamed, but the other pubs would have plenty of spare tables to loan them for a few months if the reduced capacity to ensure sufficient spacing. |

Important not to take any one source as a true indicator. Also look at the KCL Zoe study, ONs study and the React study. Tests only seem to be getting to 50% of those contracting the virus even with the recent uptake. So if it was 30000 tests back positive a couple of weeks ago, the other sources would infer that was actually 60000. 12500 cases yesterday, so probably 25000 in reality. Zoe had it at 24000 yday for e.g. |

I agree, and what makes it all the more galling is that the vast majority of pubs spent a significant sum of money preparing exactly what you suggest, and have already shown that they are capable of managing such a system. It seems likely to me that the hospitality industry will be under these restrictions until February, so all that money, time and effort they put into being as safe as possible has gone to waste. There's a danger that the industry will be decimated by the time this is done, to such an extent that it will take years and years to recover |
