? are retirees,who because of age are at high risk, really being asked to return to work ?Dave, can I ask if you have been asked if you can work as a doctor in these times, here in Norway many doctors who have quit work have been asked if they can start and work again.
Not yet. You are right. Especially because of age, retired docs probably shouldn’t be frontline caregivers. Could function caring for non-Covid patients, to free up other docs to work with the sickest virus victims. Our state has only about 3000 cases, with about 100 deaths...well within the health system’s capacity. No requests to come out of retirement yet. I would serve if asked.? are retirees,who because of age are at high risk, really being asked to return to work ?
Here in the UK all retired nurses and doctors have been asked to step up.? are retirees,who because of age are at high risk, really being asked to return to work ?
Oh! I want some too!I have two crystaline stones that when I bang them together in the dark, emit a bright flash of light inside them! I don't think there is anything supernatural in them. I purchased them from a fossil shop for quite small sum of money a number of years ago.

Quartz. Take an interesting trip into the world of 'Triboluminescence'. Somewhere along the way you'll find pulling scotch tape off the reel you can create enough x-rays to actually X-RAY your finger! Doesn't sound too healthy to me. Glad I don't work in a packing department.Oh! I want some too!
Sawdust or glue fumes might make it worse! Hope all goes will with you - take it easy - Best wishes - Bob
Nigel --- STAY WELL PLEASE!!!Thanks Dave and Jim.My doctor has diagnosed me as Covid 19 but I would only be tested properly if admitted to hospital.As I work in the Construction Industry and my wife manages a Greengrocers,both of us have been going to work as normal until today despite the lockdown.I have learned today that a lad from my work died at the weekend after being ill for 2 weeks with Covid 19.
Three months ago we were asked to assess and highlight key risks regarding work continuance in our departments if the epidemic hit the UK.This has all become very real and on my doorstep.
Kind Regards
Nigel
