I'm not (comparatively- remember I'm currently and primarily- until we shift- a surgical trainee.)
I'm just as frustrated but in a different way, and for different reasons.People are working hard.
No matter what you think of this government, and I think (as do most of my colleagues) very little of them, you have to hope that they have made a decision where they know the severity of the outcomes, a truly horrible decision, with some sort of scientific process, and logic.
We are talking about possible deaths vs probable deaths.
This is the complication that people are perhaps missing.
And most of all- when we attack the government about health policy - it is never them that faces the outcome of that change.
With regards to enforced social isolation, I cannot envisage it working.
Not even in the short term.
I suspect that horse had bolted a while back.PS.

Yeah I am not criticising the health policy at all. Just the comms in front of it.
The irony last week that people were quoting Jeremy Hunts questioning of the approach, yet he was at the helm when the serious damage was done during the last decade. Oh the ironing!

Ian Macdonald was a civil servant who appeared on the 6pm news every day for 2 months during the falklands conflict in 1982 to provide the daily government update on what had happened. People waited for his updates and it became the establish source for what is happening.
Bit different from socialising via Peston and then Hancock mumbling what might happen on Sunday morning
