The chinese were not going to fly them out! But we, and others

in their communities! These cases would not have been present now
if they were still out there!
I ask again, imagine if it were bubonic plague or something??
Where would we be now?
Its a very simple, if uncomfortable concept Zuleika!

NHS orders 'assessment pods' in England hospitals

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51392607
Every hospital in England is being asked to create "priority assessment pods" for patients with suspected coronavirus, the NHS has said.

Patients who are concerned they may have the virus are still advised to isolate themselves and call 111.

But the contingency measure is intended to prevent any patients who do arrive at hospital from mixing with vulnerable patients.

The secure areas are expected to be introduced by Friday.

I doubt it was spread by those who were flown in official evacuation planes

What is an official evacuation plane Annie?
And what about transit from the planes to the facility?
We have allready seen unprotected coach drivers driving suspect
evacuees from the planes! And only heard rumours that they will
be given two weeks payed holiday to cover the incubation period??
All seems a bit slapdash to me?
It may, and probably will imo, turn out ok this time, but there WILL
be a next time, how will we react??
You have more faith in the powers that be than me Annie??

I am not scaremongering I'm telling what I heard. I have a friend who has been sent to Scarborough to lay foundations for an isolation hospital to do with the corona virus. I have no reason to lie Zuleika.

I want people to stay over there because I sure as hell don't want this evil virus that is killing people. I'm not ready to die just yet and that could quite possibly happen if I caught it as I have poorly lungs having COPD. Call me selfish, that's fine with me but if truth be known there are many people out there thinking just like me.

By the way, there are 3 who have died. We all know flu spreads like wildfire. It is very frightening what is happening.

They were NOT suspect evacuees they were people who wanted to come back to the UK. The same as ones coming back this coming Sunday .
Why are you doubting the coach drivers would not be given paid holiday ? All the coaches were going to be taken out of service and disinfected .
You're simply scaremongering imo.

Zuleika, by the fact they were present in china at the time they were
there, they became suspected of being infected with the virus!
Do you propose that because of their selfish wish to be repatriated
the rest of the planet should be exposed to the same risks as them??
It makes no sense!
Regarding the coach drivers free holidays l can only refer you to
Zero hours contracts etc! etc!
It is not the way society works any more!!!
