Respose to coronavirus - getting the right balance

[malumbu]

With thanks to Sally who raised this on the ED issues section, a great article by Jason Leitch, National Clinical Director, Scotland, about getting the right balance in the lockdown. Please give it a listen, its only a few minutes long and nicely explains how you want to avoid unintended consequences of a more severe lockdown - domestic violence, mental health and the economy, and not neglecting other life threatening illness.

Bumping this up as this is more relevant than the cock in the White Maserati, that for some reason has three many times views.

My thoughts

a) Maybe you think it's more relevant but other's don't

b) You're just sharing a link to yet another article about Covid 19, of which there are already a billion (my estimate)

c) A cock in a White Maserati is more interesting (evidenced by more people reading it)

d) Bumping your own stuff on the forum is annoying

Hi Mark. Try watching it, and then share your opinion. It was intended to be helpful, that is why I described it briefly but didn't give an opinion. But I do have an opinion, so thanks for asking. I find it informative, being well and credibly presented. I look forward to hearing your response.

Your link doesn't go to an article?

I was interested to read it but I can't find it!

I can't watch it, it links to a Twitter page which has loads of noise on it and it's unfindable.
