Whenever the government get a wiff of being bought to book they immediately start building their defences and lies. Dominic Raab on interview today said, The NHS have done a brilliant job caring for thousands of covid cases. ( true), then he continued to say they have also, at the same time still been able to treat people with all (other) urgent medical treatments, ( big fat lie) because he knows full well cancer patients are (not) getting their urgent treatment, and top medical doctors have said there could be more people die from cancer than covid, due to the lack of detection of cancer, or stopping of treatment already in progress. Covering their backside in advance is what their doing. And I doubt we won't see any figures for those deaths. False statements and diversions.

Many cancer treatments are carrying on normally. My local hospital (Ipswich) has simply relocated the entire day unit (for people like me, who're on chemotherapy) two miles up the road to the local Nuffield Hospital, making use of the private hospital spaces bought in by the NHS.

The facilities aren't pefect, with a very wide corridor being used for many patient spaces and with other patients placed into the side rooms that were formerly used as consulting rooms but it does the job well enough, ensuring that social distancing between patients is maintained and that treatments can continue normally.

Some similar 'lateral thinking' with other hospital trusts might enable yet more treatments to continue taking place.

Yes but the norm across the UK is cancelled treatment.
// because he knows full well cancer patients are (not) getting their urgent treatment,//

er need not be urgent - I have given you the refs
I had delayed tmt myself - it has no effect on survival

who was it who said - false statements and fiversions?

not cancelled - it never occurs
post poned - it occurs at a later date
and you know what? - it seems not to affect survival

I have this statement - false statements and fiversions stuck in my brain
am I ill ?

( no effect on survival) I'm sure your know there's different types.
"top medical doctors have said there could be more people die from cancer than covid, due to the lack of detection of cancer, or stopping of treatment already in progress."

Do you have a link for that claim?

Pay attention to regular news statements you can't go wrong, all from one to one interviews, in other words from the horses mouth.
>>> Yes but the norm across the UK is cancelled treatment

No it isn't. While a few cases of cancellations (or, more likely, postponements) might hit the headlines, the vast majority of treatments are carrying on largely as normal:

I didn’t vote for this government but I can’t help thinking that they are doing what they think best (for everyone) in the face of an unknown pandemic.

22.15 It always looks the part in a written plan, in reality ?? they can't interview everyone on TV that are experiencing the real truth that's why it will be easy for government to hide.
Question Author
22.02 I'm not disputing in this thread that their not doing what they can, but give the truth not lies.
Told you before-stop watching the telly. They're full of ***, always have been.
"Yes but the norm across the UK is cancelled [cancer] treatment."

Do you have evidence of that rather than un-named folk on unidentified news programmes?
I know you're waiting for an urgent brain transplant, TC, but you'll just have to be patient.
You have yet to prove any lies TC.
Question Author
22.27 glad you find it funny, @ratt
Would the news be interviewing the patients who HAVE been receiving their scheduled cancer treatment?
Question Author
The normal so called comedians on here to night with little to offer.
What cancer are you having Chemo for , Chris - if you don't mind me asking ?
Another spurious argument blown out of the water so you resort to insults - again.
Have you read the Jennifer Saunders thread TC?
Did it hit home at all?
