It's not like it's unpredictable that healthcare staff will first to catch virus from patients, and safeguarding staff should be a priority in such situations.

    It's all fooking easily predictable - and cheap to prepare in advance when the demand for materials is low.

      "A" Pangolin? If by "Pangolin" you mean "Germ Warfare", then I agree.

          And who cleans the hotels? How do they get to work? Where do the hotel supplies come from? How do the suppliers get to work?
          Its obvious, they're put up in hotels near to the hotels where the nurses are locked up.

              Nurses should have been put in nearby hotels (which are empty anyway), get full food there etc - this would have reduced possible exposure to virus of their families.

              At least those nurses who shown any symptons, shoudl have been allowed to self-isolate in designated hotels.
              Yeah, that seems fair enough ...... oy, you, nurse, thanks for all the help and sacrifice. We're going to banish you away from your family in a hotel for the next 3 months. What do you mean you have a husband* and kids? You should have thought about that before you became a nurse!

              * for my example I've assumed a female nurse

                You might be right or some male nurses, it is the 21st century

                      How do you get to the out-of-town supermarket to get your supplies?
