Coronavirus - Part Two.


Recommended Posts

As you’ll know, Presley, there’s mass testing being carried out in Liverpool at the moment. The half-million population are being offered the tests. They aren’t compulsory. Do you think they should be?

 

By the way, there are over 2 million students in the UK, four times the population of Liverpool.

Easy!  In this pandemic disciplin should be enforced,  Students should  be told to  get tested no ifs or buts, just get it done,  as we all  know by now , not for just their own protection  but to protect others aswell ,  seriously! Is it asking too much.  Who ever disagrees with post must be just plain selfish, its a no brainer. :roll:

So just to be absolutely clear - what you are suggesting is that students should be forced to get a test or if they fail to do so, they will be held against their will in the university grounds debarred from leaving to travel home or elsewhere.  Right?

 

Have you actually considered the small legal, moral and human rights complications arising from such actions.

My bold

 

No!!  Nowhere did Presley suggest locking them up, that was a crazy suggestion... according to Presley.  Though Presley hasn't been able to answer what should be done if students don't have a test, despite saying they shouldn't be allowed to travel.

 

Maybe my cognitive processes have been slowed down by the virus...

 

Anyway, it's a tricky situation.  Students will have to isolate from the moment they have their test, so that they don't contract the virus whilst waiting for the result, or it'll just be a waste if time and resources.

isnt it the same as any national, or regional lockdowns? you stay at home until either safe (as in self isolating) or told you can come out again, like these national ones we are currently under?

 

students still have a "home" even if its not their family home
