Wow. This email from a UK hospital instructs healthcare workers not to test for COVID because it might keep them out of work for longer. What happened to "do no harm"?

(Source: Prof. Stephen Griffin)

Email:Staff should not be testing for COVID-19 The IPC team have been receiving many reports of staff testing positive for Covid. • In line with national guidance, staff should NOT be taking LFDs. • Instead, they should respond to their own symptoms and stay at home if they feel unwell. • Testing for Covid can result in having to remain at home for longer than their symptoms persist. Full quidance is in the attached document which can also be accessed on the IPC page on StaffZone here

@luckytran unfortunately this seems like a case of them wanting to "do no harm (to our business productivity and ability to go to work)"
obviously that won't work out well for their employees and will absolutely cause some distrust with that IPC team
