@mmcclean797 @NgOonHui @thompson95_ali @DundeePublicH Waiting times for counsellors already huge - many people go private if they can afford

[Alison Thompson @thompson95_ali]

@DundeePublicH In the aftermath possible counselling services needed for those who lost family members etc to the flu #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@DundeePublicH @degetliffe @vegetabletarian If 1 in 5 had it but were relatively unaffected - alters perception of how dangerous it was?

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

Make new guidelines for future now in aftermath of #fluscenario - look at what did/didn't work this time to guide plans

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

#fluscenario #whatilearned Public Transport is prime area for infection spread - warn operators and supply hand gel!

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@thompson95_ali @DundeePublicH Put hand gel on transport/encourage workers to wear masks? They don't get ill, can still operate #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

Essential govt/council service providers offered anti-virals - need to maintain infrastructure even when so many are ill #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@DundeePublicH @vegetabletarian @siobhanc10 from a utilitarian POV,if theyre protected,frees up beds for others MORE vulnerable #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@DundeePublicH @vegetabletarian @siobhanc10 Any info about effects could be provided;surely any life is better than both dying? #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

#fluscenario #whativelearnt Other essential nonhealthcare workers also priority for vaccine, still looking for reliable info sources

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@mmcclean797 @thompson95_ali @CrashCall Teachers are not high on the priority list but perhaps prioritise teachers of at risk groups first.

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@mmcclean797 @thompson95_ali But are the 4 y/o not more susceptible to flu? Although as a risk group they may already be vaccinated #flu

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@mmcclean797 @CrashCall Not just because they could spread it though but because they could catch it but can't afford to! #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@sunilpowar101 @ginger_kt1995 @DundeePublicH @CrashCall @vegetabletarian If military called and vaccine available they should get it too!

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@ginger_kt1995 @DundeePublicH @CrashCall The whole #fluscenario is a budgeting nightmare! Almost every intervention is expensive!

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@NgOonHui @sunilpowar101 @DundeePublicH @vegetabletarian Can you quarantine people coming back from high risk countries too? #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@ginger_kt1995 @DundeePublicH @CrashCall @vegetabletarian I'm just suggesting - it does sound very ambitious! #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@ginger_kt1995 @DundeePublicH @CrashCall @vegetabletarian Ankle bracelets like criminals to keep you inside?? #criminal #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@DundeePublicH @vegetabletarian If flu was reaching pandemic then you could pull that card but that may increase panic! #fluscenario

[Ellen McBride @mcbride_ellen]

@vegetabletarian Many people not keen/unable to take time off work! How do we get them to stay home? #fluscenario
