Coronavirus update - NO MORE RESTRICTIONS

Re: Coronavirus update

Birmingham puts its Nightingale hospital on high alert, Meanwhile we are dismantling our Covid hospital at the Principality Stadium!

The Nightingale hospital in Exeter is also being re commissioned there must be preparations being made in England at least for a serious second spike. So while hospitals in England are being re-opened the hospital in Cardiff is being dismantled. The Welsh government's actions don't seem very sensible.

Aren't they just moving the 'nightingale' hospital? There was a news story posted on here the other day about them building a new facility for Covid patients next to the Heath.

Seems fine to me... Unless I'm missing something glaring.

400 bed field hospital being built next to UHW apparently.

Seems a more sensible place anyway

Don't tell them that. It'll stymie their desperate attempts to criticize Welsh Labour.

Nice waste of 30 million that.....they needed to do it though didn’t they, or they could have built it somewhere where it can stay permanently

Can’t say I’ve noticed it and I cycle through or past it most days

I'm firmly in the better to have it and not need it camp when it comes to the stadium hospital

How long do you think it takes to build a hospital, goats?

Takes a bit longer to build a permanent building and kit it out
than it does to kit out an existing structure dont you think?

Wales are at home to Scotland on October 31st in the 6 nations. Venue TBC

I wonder if that has anything to do with making the stadium available again

Of course behind closed doors they could play at Pontypool Park but the WRU probably have more clout than the local government so want their stadium back.

Sure, I mean they could have used another building or warehouse around cardiff, not build one from scratch. Although for 20 million you never know. There’s lots of empty office blocks around that could have been used for starters

WRU will want to be at MS with or without fans. I wasn't suggesting there would be fans there. Just they would want to be 'at home'

It's been well reported that the WRU have been looking at alternative venues since July. Spurs ground was one of them if crowds were allowed to watch, more local grounds if not.
