The bill, allowing for $2 trillion in funding, has already been approved by the Senate and now goes to President Trump to sign into law.
Should have been testing from the start.
It's not good enough. When will the first UK Communist government stamp it's supreme authority and start enforcement of mandatory testing? Testing is knowledge.
Jay_Beecher Had the offer of help... Lied about it
BBCScotland Another day , a different moron at the podium 😷
Testing rolled out (sorry ramped up 🙄) at long last. Should have been several weeks ago when had a modicum of breathing space. See also PPE, also ventilators, not Tory nepotism as afterthought as usual😡 What happens when 50% frontline test +ive and have to isolate for 7 days?
3-4 weeks too late mate
Still the bbc spread lies and deceit from the government of liars , just more announcements, never any action , Johnson’s plan of ‘letting the virus go through the population’ is still go full force , unchallenged by our ‘so called’ media . History will not be kind to the bbc.
Surely it was crucial a month ago!
When 'the rest' will be tested?
12k tests completed so far in Scotland
Too little too late. We had really promising numbers that seemed controllable and calm to many others now it’s gone explosive, this should’ve been done last week at the latest.
Does this include care workers
This moron will probably order pregnancy tests... COVID19 BorisJohnson
About effing time. Too little too late as per usual with this lethargic reactionary government.
Tories love tests Stressful tests for infant school children Humiliating tests for disabled people Foolish tests for eleven year olds Drug test for prisoners Just to stop weed Means test for beggars They are the Party of senseless tests But today We need tests And there are none
Uk government a day late and a dollar short again
About time michaelgove make sure you get this done right testsandPPE
He dodged every question... if he's our only hope...
All front line and key workers, NHS, care workers, crucial transport, police, retail, I can go on all night with this ALL keyworkers need testing as a matter of absolute urgency. coronavirus
Ta55660738Fiona IF Tories had not CUT NHS FUNDING FOR 10 years it might have led to a STRONGER HEALTH SERVICE Report On That One Sidedness if YOU are a REAL Broadcaster.
About time.
Better late than never, I suppose. Should have had the same urgency 3 months ago!
Too little Too late
Is Michael Gove standing in as PM
FFS, you should have done what WHO told you from the begin of March. Test, track, social isolate and quarantine. Do it NOW and do it ALL. But you Tory Con artists sat on your hands and did nothing. Now this virus has spread exponentially and testing is too late. ToryEugenics
Not before time
Will this be extended to support workers in hospitals too?
Wouldn't believe Gove if he told me the sky was blue
He didn't even know who was building the test kits! We're playing catch up when these things should have been done weeks ago.
Teachers everywhere feeling gove-sick
Sharp as a tennis ball . . .!😳
Crucial. And weeks overdue...
bbc5live Far far far too late, this should have been implemented 11 weeks ago
With all the modern technology, why do three people have to walk to and stand up in that room? They could do the briefing from anywhere, even sitting on their fecking toilets.
BBCSurrey Stopping people going to work who are not key workers is essential! profitoverpeople
Beggars belief -the W.H.O have been telling them that for months..
So you could test negative for the virus on Sunday and return to work but could then become infected two days later !!!!!
Smackhead!
bbc5live If you can’t get behind the country then shut up
Been saying that for the last two weeks...cut the bullshit.
Transparently inadequate.
More media sniping. Please ask constructive questions not constantly trying to take scalps. Bury your egos and ask questions that provide information. Become Journalists not the enemy because everyone is doing their best.
If you didn’t see that the Tory party have been underfunding the NHS for years, I hope that you see it now.
Something about barn doors and horses bolting.... 🙄
Love Dr Jenny Harries, “as I said yesterday” or “as I said previously” and they continue to ask the same questions day, after day. 🙄
BBCPolitics Worked well in no 10. Hope they've deep cleaned the building?
PLEASE CLOSE NONE ESSENTIAL ONLINE WAREHOUSES, TO MDNY PPL WORKING IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. Ppl aren't staying in, there making unnecessary journeys, I've not been out since Monday, only to walk my dogs. STAYING IN WON'T KILL YOU,BUT GOING OUT MIGHT
Take note IKEAUK wincantonplc believe delivering furniture is essential to life and are putting their workers and families lives at risk shutdown COVID19 CoronaLockdown
Then promptly ignoring all questions.
Will he answer any of the questions ?
BBCPolitics Yes, good to see the government taking it on the chin and letting it run its course
When is that gonna happen?
Gove is not answering a single question! Just bullshitting away! Can someone kick his arse please?
BBCPolitics Surely it discriminates against people who ignore advice, and take unnecessary risks.
Is the advice adequate should the distance be more than 2 metres ?
BBCPolitics Many organisations are reducing their charges during this difficult time. What are the BBC doing?
bbc5live What you mean like the tories have been distancing themselves from the NHS for the last 10 years
So BBC asked that question, yet didn't get a great response. Gove avoided answering it, was BoJo not following his own advice? If he was, we have no hope then, if he wasn't then makes more sense he's got symptoms. :-( To all who are unwell get well soon
I'm not sure why, but I don't believe a word that he says. Could be the documented history of lies he has told. Who knows! 🤷♂️
Gove would not admit he fecked up
bbc5live Oh the hypocrisy 🙄
BBCPolitics Test, test, test.
Why wait for a global pandemic to teach the govt to do things that they should’ve done years ago! At least we can hope it’s a start and let’s hope people come first from now on!
Funny that....
With this latest need of more deaths and more ppl contracting the virus is now the time BorisJohnson MattHancock to put the UK on FULL LOCKDOWN? obviously by pictures from local places in city’s ppl are not listening put it on and also put curfews in place so ppl don’t go out
bbcsoutheast A boost? Just test everyone ffs!
