Well, he's still practicing when he wants to.

Also, he correctly stated that NHS contracts forbid current workers from giving views that aren't sanctioned by their employers so I kind of don't like this implication that.....everyone agrees....because that isn't the reality.

The BBC News website has that study saying between 25,000 and 75,000 deaths. It didn’t mention there could be zero deaths. I expect the pitiful study didn’t say zero was a possibility.

Where I disagree with you is your point the NHS have reported zero hospitalisations from omicron. It hasn’t been here long enough in big numbers for the hospitalisations yet. Hopefully the numbers will be contained enough. There will be a lot of people scratching around for a crumb of data, or an irrelevant or incomplete point to save face if hospitalisations get out of control. Hopefully they won’t.

I’m pretty sick of the BS claims from both sides of the argument. It’s either no deaths on one side or 25,000-75,000 on the other. The truth is nobody knows but we’re waiting to see how mild or how hospitalising omicron is in the UK because nobody yet knows. That’s the only thing that is true, while the garbage from either side continues. If people want to talk about other effects of restrictions then fine, but claiming things they’ve no idea if true or not or wildly exaggerated just makes the arguments worse.

I guess you aren’t aware of Whistleblowing law which is located in the Employment Rights Act 1996 (as amended by the Public Interest Disclosure Act 199.

Yeah....that's really worked out for whistle blowers hasn't it Maple.

Also, I'm not sure that having a different opinion really amounts to 'whistle blowing'.

Talking of whistle blowers, I hear we are shipping the biggest one of all...Assange, right back to his main enemy.

And you know this how? If there were a genuine concern it would be raised, not least of all due to The Hypocratic Oath. Whistleblowers have protection and in an organisation like the NHS that would certainly stick, especially if it were a senior doctor. This is simple prejudice using every possible excuse. I am stunned how unscientific the debate on here is and how people clutch at straws from tiny outlier opinions from people with relatively low levels of knowledge.

That you wish to conflate the "kid you didn't like" with adults whose actions threaten the ability of NHS staff to save the lives of others, says quite a lot about you!

Disruptive kids get excluded from school. NHS staff don't exclude people because they "don't like them". They don't even exclude them when they are disruptive. Maybe they should, but they won't.
