COVID Crisis in the UK

COVID Crisis in the UK More than one hundred thousand people have now died in Great Britain as a result of the global pandemic. That number continues to grow. One hundred thousand grieving families. One hundred thousand empty chairs at the dinner table. The last year has been one of grief, loss and hardship. It has also been a year that brought stories of resilience, a growing sense of community and hope. To try and comprehend the enormity of what we are living through, Sky News has created one of the most comprehensive timelines to date of the COVID crisis in the UK. It runs to almost 130 detailed pages and gathers together hundreds of statistics and front-line stories, charting the virus as it swept through our hospitals, our care homes and our lives. It was a working document put together by our journalists and used by our teams as they researched stories for a special series of programmes broadcast on Sky News on 9th, 10th and 11th February 2021 called COVID Crisis: Learning the Lessons. We are publishing it here so everyone can use it; whether you’re interested in seeing our work behind the scenes, or whether you are involved in your own analysis of the UK’s response to the pandemic. Where links are to Sky News stories, the timeline represents contemporaneous news reporting. For example, the first British death from COVID that we knew of at the time was on 28th February 2020. We now know an earlier COVID-related death happened on 30th January 2020. Every effort has been made to avoid typos and omissions; however, some may have inevitably crept into such a long document. Compiled by David Mercer, Nick Stylianou, Ganesh Rao, Jack Taylor and Jamie Roberton.

Uncertainty regarding clinical symptoms for individuals with mild illness. There is limited evidence of asymptomatic transmission, but early indications imply some is occurring ➔ Reasonable worst-case scenario - similar to an influenza pandemic where no vaccine or specific treatment is available.

They are struggling to get help from the medical community for their continuing disease and feel abandoned by the government. The Covid-19 pandemic is estimated by the ONS to have infected around 7% of the UK population [1], [2] or approximately 4.6 million people; other studies suggest that the proportion infected could be as high as 25% [3]. In the early stages of the UK epidemic, government briefings and press reports were focussed on those who had severe symptoms and were at risk of being admitted to intensive care. People who had what were described as ‘mild’ symptoms were advised to stay in place and only present to hospital if their condition became critical. As a result, a significant number of sufferers battled with their symptoms at home, relying on advice from 111 which was not always helpful.

  • The NHS Is a Health System Not a Charity. It Should Be Funded Accordingly, Writes Rebecca Richards
    The NHS is a health system not a charity. It should be funded accordingly, writes Rebecca Richards He walked his way into the hearts of a nation – one lap of his garden at a time. In doing so, 100-year-old – soon to be Sir – Captain Tom Moore raised a staggering £29million for the NHS.[1] While perhaps the most publicised, he is not the only private citizen helping the NHS respond to the Covid-19 pandemic. The ‘Run for Heroes’ Challenge – whereby social media users run 5km, donate £5, and nominate five of their friends to do the same – has raised more than £5million in less than a month.[2] And all over the country, people are sewing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for frontline healthcare workers that are lacking adequate safety equipment.[3] But the heart-warming response these extraordinary feats of solidarity and good-will elicit in us can also obscure the fact that the NHS should not need this level of support. As an anonymous NHS doctor recently pointed out, ‘The NHS is not a charity’.[4] The NHS is a healthcare system. It is therefore the government’s responsibility to fund, staff, and supply it so that it can effectively respond to a pandemic that was not entirely unexpected.[5] [6] It is a responsibility the government has arguably failed to fulfill adequately. Though not alone in its enforcement of austerity measures over the past decades, [7] the government’s economic policies left the NHS under pressure even before the pandemic broke out.[8] Between 2010 and 2014, for example, the real-term annual increase in NHS England funding was only 1.3%, down from historical annual growth rates of approximately 4%.[9] This has been associated with nearly 120,000 preventable deaths in England during this time period.[10] And though the government committed to increasing NHS funding in 2018,[11] this – and subsequent government funding increases – has not been enough to ‘reverse years of health underfunding’.[12] When the magnitude of the Covid-19 crisis became clear, the NHS was therefore not fully prepared.

  • An Affront to Dignity, Inclusion and Equality: Coronavirus and the Impact of Law, Policy and Practice on People with Disabilities in the United Kingdom
    Report Recommendations - An Affront to Dignity, Inclusion and Equality: Coronavirus and the impact of law, policy and practice on people with disabilities in the United Kingdom In the following areas our Report urges the government to: On reforming the Coronavirus Act 2020, disability rights and mitigating effects of the pandemic 1. Undertake an immediate review of legislation passed during the coronavirus crisis and communication thereof. In doing so, we ask that the government change this legislation and all related policymaking to meet its duties under the Equality Act 2010, and commitments to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and take steps to avoid or mitigate any potential disadvantage for disabled people. 2. Implement recommendations made by the 2016 House of Lords Select Committee Report on the Equality Act 2010 and Disability, and by the Women and Equalities Committee, on enhancing the enforcement of the Equality Act 2010, both by removing deterrents to individuals bringing disability discrimination cases; and by measures which embed the monitoring and enforcement of relevant duties in the work of regulatory and inspection bodies. 3. Undertake an inquiry on the impact of COVID-19 on disabled people to examine why this group has carried such a heavy burden for the pandemic, including the scale of Covid-19 related deaths. 4. Establish a Covid-19 Disability Inclusive Response and Recovery Group, of experts by experience with disabilities and Disabled People’s Organisations, to ensure disabled people are central to decision-making on the economic and social recovery to the pandemic and guidance. 5.
