[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 348925, member: 33"] I wouldn't have voted to underfund the NHS and social care since 2010 to leave it in such a dire state before the pandemic started. If I had to discharge patients to free up beds, I would tested them first to see if they had covid. I would have moved them to a quarantine centre for 14 days before allowing them to go to care homes alongside frail and vulnerable people. These are just common sense measures and do not require anyone to be an expert in the field to make them. Because of the way that viruses spread, in the case of covid one infected person would pass it on to 2.5 others an so on, significantly more (possibly exponentially more) people would have died from Covid in care homes compared with those who were saved by the freeing up of hospital beds. Matt Hancock presided over running down the NHS and when the Covid hit he panicked over the shortage of beds which lead to his poor decision making which killed thousands of people. The decision to discharge the virus into care homes was taken by him so he must carry the can and he can't hide behind others. The police should have launched an enquiry after the High Court found his decision to be unlawful and gathered evidence to charge him. Hopefully, they will do so if the public enquiry reaches the same conclusion as the High Court. [/QUOTE]
