1/5: Testing shambles in Oldham today!. I refuse to let the council take the flack for a national failure.Residents couldn't book online or through 119 and were being turned away from our walk up sites.
Clearly appears national changed guidelines without informing us.
2/5:Testing is a key part of our fight back so how are we supposed to hit a testing target that demands asymptomatic testing.
The biggest most difficult public health issue of our generation and they clearly haven't got a grip but are okay to lay the blame at our door.
3/5:Spent the day speaking to concerned residents who are already doing there best in such challenging circumstances. A mother who got turned away from one site went to another to be turned away again terrified and rightly concerned for the welfare of her child.
4/5:If lab capacity is an issue and we’re facing the same situation that the leader of Wales found himself in when testing capacity was limited then at least do the right thing and let us know!!. How are we supposed to build trust with our residents and help
5/5:them navigate through this ?!?!.
Govt then has the nerve to use the weekly press conference to tell us off like we’re naughty school kids instead of accepting responsibility for their own failure.The Government is failing us and our people . #testingshambles #torychaos
