mossy835 Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 they should do a lock down from india to the uk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Just now, mossy835 said: they should do a lock down from india to the uk. They have now (via the compulsory quarantine in hotel route), but it was very late in being introduced. The present 'India strain/variant' is apparently here already, but the current vaccines are thought to combat it OK. Once the country is to a very low level - there is a strong case for behaving a bit like say New Zealand and Australia where cross border travel is heavily restricted/controlled/quarantined in order to allow for much more freedom inside our border.

Mice! Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 I didn't realise travel to and from India hadn't been stopped, you would have thought that was the first thing to have been done, not send oxygen, stop their strain coming straight here. Some may think that's harsh but it would make a mockery of the restrictions we have had if travel from areas with covid issues like India is allowed to carry on. But the lefty media would love it, Boris stops families trying to escape India from returning home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnfromUK Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 5 minutes ago, Mice! said: I didn't realise travel to and from India hadn't been stopped It is actually quite complex; Travel for 'holidays' overseas (anywhere overseas) is currently prohibited. If you have a 'permitted reason' then you can travel (but are advised against it) - and have to conform with certain rules - the main ones concerning return. UK (and Irish) citizens and those with UK residence permission can enter - but must quarantine in a Govt approved hotel. Others generally cannot enter. Permitted reasons can include business and family reasons as I understand it. Clearly there are a lot of UK people with both business and family in India Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgun Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 My youngest in her final/6th year at school is obliged to take a covid test twice a week, it quickly shows the result [10min] Why not have this test at all ports, air or sea, a positive test means return from whence you came or a suitable quarantine at the persons own expense..

Gordon R Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 The scale of the situation in India is tragic. I always feel sorry for the general public, who are governed by people who are detached from reality. As has been pointed out - space programme, at the expense of public health.

Unfortunately by the time they got to UK they will have spread it to other passengers. They need to be stopped from boarding, even better: stopped from entering the dang airport in India.

I presume that they have to have a test before boarding as my BIL has to when traveling to and from Kazakhstan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely down to cost, another reason to keep things in house, or at least some of it. I always wonder when you see veg in the supermarkets from countries that struggle to feed their own people.

That will be a "lateral flow" test, as opposed to the PCR ones which are really the only test which is reliable. Lateral Flow tests are a joke. They throw out so many false results it's criminal. It really isn't funny if your child "tests positive" from a lateral flow at school, which consequentially forces the whole family to self-isolate for 10 days even if they subsequently get an accurate PCR test showing negative.... mind bogglingly, the consequences of the initial lateral flow still take effect and you have to stay in isolation knowing full well it's for absolutely nothing. Testing has been an absolute farce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had this discussion in the context of what it would take to pull India over - if I was of the wrong cast and (1) going to die of starvation (from being at the bottom of the proverbial food chain in India) or (2) going to die because I’m at the bottom of the list to receive oxygen / basic medical care - then at what point do I tip the table over, get out on the streets and start rioting? We can talk about India but we won’t get our heads round it - Mr Thick-as-mince-himself-David-Lammy was on LBC the other day taking a call from an Indian chap. Lammy couldn’t get his head round why India couldn’t just lockdown and have a circuit break? The answer being they’d just starve - there’s no supermarket infrastructure, not everyone even has a fridge and poverty is so real that 2 weeks locked down means 2 weeks without food and death by starvation. He then asked why couldn’t the government just airlift in food to those who needed it? Errrrr because it’s India and you can’t do meals on wheels to 1.3 billion people you total and utter clown. This is the truth, no slack in the system, when I lived in West Africa we had to pay our workers daily because if you gave them a weeks wages in one go they would get robbed or worse.
