.@michaelgove said on #PPE, responding to @PeteWishart:
"The stockpile that we had before this pandemic was explicitly designed in acc with the advice from... #NERVTAG, and ofc it was specifically for a 'flu pandemic..."
This does not accord with #Panorama last night.

@michaelgove @PeteWishart For clarity, this is how the Guardian live feed today reports @michaelgove's comments ⤵ 
@michaelgove @PeteWishart PS: I hope @michaelgove (and @jeremy_hunt, on whose watch it was) are absolutely bricking it, when they think of the likely findings of the eventual judge-led public enquiry on #coronavirusuk and on the (non-)provision of #PPE.
@michaelgove @PeteWishart @Jeremy_Hunt PPS:
The Independent has this comment from a spokesperson for @jeremy_hunt, on post-Cygnus (non-)provision of (adequate) #PPE.
"“Jeremy does not believe he was personally involved in decisions about PPE for NHS staff.”
Hunt was HEALTH SEC from '12-'18.

@michaelgove @PeteWishart @Jeremy_Hunt PPPS:
Even if @michaelgove were right, that (post-Cygnus) #PPE was stockpiled, as for a 'flu pandemic:
That doesn't cut it.
'Flu pandemics require PPE to this standard ⤵.
Either #Panorama has got it wrong, or Gove is misdirecting.
Hard call...

@michaelgove @PeteWishart @Jeremy_Hunt Finally, is it hubristic to unroll one's own thread?
