Maybe now he will see fit to give NHS staff a pay increase.

Too late for the 3 cleaning staff who died this week. Risked their lives for £9ph.

Highly doubtful. Fairly certain he would have got 10x more care than the average patient and if they didn't see fit to give them a raise before this situation wont change their opinion.

You sound like a pragmatist sir.

I am an optimist.

Hopefully he will be grateful for his life being saved. More likely he will use what happened to him to make himself look like a martyr.

Strange attitude to have. When at some point in your life you need the NHS maybe you will be more appreciative.

3 cleaners died last week in the hospital I work. £9 an hour.

Obviously not. How could there be?

But you don’t have to be Einstein to work out it’s a very high probability they were.

Any death is terrible due to this virus.

However it's wrong to asume because someone works in a hospital they caught the infection there.

Yes a higher probability but not the only place they may have caught it.

So they work what..anything between 8 and 17 hours with infected patients..often without the necessary ppe.

And you think they picked up on The bus on the way home?

I said if you worked with infected patients all day and caught the bus it's very,very unlikely you caught it on The bus.

The Covid patient’s don’t magic themselves into the hospital. They are wheeled through corridors and in lifts.

One of the symptoms is persistent coughing. I work in a large hospital. Hardly anyone wears ppe whilst walking around the hospital.

They were cleaners. Do you understand the job of a cleaner? PPE isn’t infallible. At the start of this crisis there were not enough ffp3 masks available.

Would you be using that same logic for the doctors, nurses and midwife thus far that have also died..?

The next time I see a report about a dr/nurse dying from covid my 1st thought wont be..that's horrific dying trying to save someone's life as they didnt have the proper gear.

It will be..well thats what they were paid to do and they probably caught it on the bus anyway.

I've already said it was a higher probability.

But it's still not 100%.

Maybe the chap trying to refute what seems blinding obvious is a lawyer for the NHS.

seriously though. 20 minutes on the bus or 8-12 hours working in close proximity of Covid patients. I’ll take my chances in the bus thanks.

Great attitude you have there fella. I doubt that it has "you run the risk of dying as a direct result of carrying out your duties" anywhere in their contract.

Perhaps you should consider changing your username. It seems rather inappropriate under the circumstances...
