UK announces record Covid deaths as hospitals “overwhelmed” – BBC News

Published

on



The United Kingdom has recorded 1,610 Covid deaths in a single day — the highest number since the pandemic struck last year.

Experts say it’s likely that even higher figures will be reported in the coming weeks. The Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine say that many hospitals are “overwhelmed” with some staff “almost on their knees” after many months treating desperately ill patients.

The number of new infections is beginning to fall and more people are receiving vaccinations.

Huw Edwards presents BBC News at Ten reporting from Clive Myrie at the Royal London Hospital and by medical editor Fergus Walsh.

    How can anyone deny that CoVid isn't serious? The hospitals were at full capacity.

    Last year I worked on all the extra hospitals that were set up to deal with all the high demand of Covid 19 patients. They were hardly used at all , a big waste of tax payers money.
    Why don't we still have these hospitals to deal with the increased amount of patients.
    Was it all just a big waste of money and effort.

    How about the thousands of deaths from coronavirus contracted in the NHS, my father was tested negative twice then contracted it 9 days later and died in February. The NHS tried to lie about where he contracted it , it was impossible to get any truth from doctors.

    What about Margate letting visitors into the cardiac ward to infect most there with Covid, definitely 4 deaths of people who had been recovering well from heart surgery.

    Huge respect for the front line staff, but the NHS management teams failed again with thousands of preventable deaths on their hands. They had loads of offers to bring in isolation techniques from the asbestos industry and just sat on their arses counting pennies.

    The NHS needs a complete overhaul now

    This link is about the British Government seeking to find someone to temporarily store large numbers of bodies!???
    Actually, you can use radiation to kill all the bacteria and anything else in the body. It's called eradiating that body. Once the meat cadaver is eradicated, it can be placed into a sterile plastic bag and stacked anywhere. It cannot rot, because this roting, requires bacteria. Rats would eat them instantly, if they find the stacks of them, but, refrigerantion would not be required. All the virus called a fomite dies in 4 days on the body. Virus needs living cells to replicate and the bodies are dead. The eradiating of the cadaver would also kill any virus. They would be safe to store without fear of spreading the plague from dead animals, unless, the bagged air tight seal is broken, and bacteria get back onto the dead cadaver, from a mouse or rat.

Iceland on track to reject EU referendum as counting nears end | BBC News

Published

on



Iceland has voted against resuming membership talks with the European Union, public broadcaster RUV has reported, with just one constituency’s votes left to count.

It reported that 52.5% of the 188,496 votes so far counted had rejected the government’s proposal, while 47.5% had said yes. Some 9,500 votes separated them.

Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir’s centre-left government promised to hold a referendum by 2027, but brought it forward because of international tensions, including US President Donald Trump’s threats against Greenland.
