I worked at a healthcare facility last July - I told them I wouldn't go back as the ventilation was so poor (the dip was me going outside for a break).
So they've increased the fresh air intake, put 2 HEPA filters in the rooms and the staff are wearing N95s
We'll get there 😷👍

I ask what and when the UK government will be informed about the operation. Will we have any say on its nature?

Disappointed to see Jon Stewart & co joke about masking in public. I do it for my medically fragile daughter (Batten Disease). People not masking properly led to her getting pneumonia, which led to her being on life support, which led to me getting price quotes on her cremation just in case.
