I was looking for a way to say this also. We have corona patients doing interviews here from the hospital. Also a World Leader is going to get - Bacon Apr 5, 13:50 13
- They would send a full staff to 10 Downing. The ONLY reason he's in the hospital is for a ventilator. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 13:53 12
  - They are showing a video from Friday where he is talking about how he was feeling at the time. Quite a turn in two days then. -- nm - zork Apr 5, 13:55 11

        Possible that hospitals just can't spare the staff to send to one patient at this time? I realize it's the prime minister but these are unique times. -- nm - pmb Apr 5, 14:11 1
