Yes, it was a choice.

Giving some examples on @BBCOne @BBCNews just now about why we we could have - and should have - avoided more than100,000 people dying from Covid.
We've created this rapid update for the ICU community with our partners @FICMNews, @Assoc_Anaes & @RCoANews to reflect the emerging evidence in the treatment of COVID19 in a changing situation 👇 bit.ly/CovidCCGuideline

That other countries failed too is not an excuse. Let no one pretend that this wasn't avoidable. Taiwan: pop 27m, 7 deaths Vietnam: pop 90m, 35 deaths Thailand: pop 70m, 67 deaths Australia: pop 26m, 909 deaths UK: pop 66m, 100,000 deaths data: worldometers.info/coronaviru…

“It is an astounding number of preventable deaths from one cause in one year, an absolutely astounding number. It’s a sign of a phenomenal failure of policy and practice" My view via The Guardian. Also quotes from @chrischirp of @IndependentSage theguardian.com/world/2021/j…

UK coronavirus deaths pass 100,000 after 1,564 reported in one day

Experts condemn ‘phenomenal failure of policy and practice’ in handling of pandemic

You might not be aware there is an 'anti lockdown' protest in Trafalgar Square this Saturday, the 'Unite for Freedom' event. It boasts "Top World Class Doctors & Nurses" which piqued my interest. So I thought I'd look them up.

NEW: a common response to reports of hospitals struggling this winter is "it’s no different to a bad flu season!" I’ve tracked down historical data on flu ICU admissions, including winter 2017-18, a record high. Here’s how England’s Covid winter compares to a bad flu season 📹

Really struggle to figure out whether this leadership is grossly incompetent or is actually covid denier.

Covid: MPs to vote on England's four-week lockdown

It comes as the head of NHS England says nearly 11,000 patients with Covid are now in hospital.

Hard pill to swallow: if you are a front line health care worker but not wearing masks and social distancing at work then you are one of those covidiots too. It makes your posts condemning public who doesn't stay home etc hilariously hypocritical and freaking lame. #COVIDー19

And for trusts who stopped their staff who try to protect themselves. Shame on you.

As our friends and colleagues brave the font lines, we must also get ready for a series of aftershocks. It's very hard to plan this far ahead while we're in survival mode. We must prepare early and strategize our response to the collateral damage of #COVID19
