The Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak is preparing to wind down the Furlough scheme as the infection rate of the virus has significantly dropped. It is expected that in the coming weeks the lockdown would be lifted and the furlough scheme would end. Over 6 million employees in the Uk are said to have received 80% of their salary from the government. This have proved popular has it has saved jobs that would have otherwise been lost and it has also mitigated the financial constraints low earning workers would have had to suffer. But as the economy prepares to return to normal, the chancellor said “anyone anxious about this I want to reassure them that there will be no cliff edge to the furlough scheme. I am working to figure out the best way to ease people back to work in a measured way”. The scheme is thought to have cost the government £42 billion. More bad news awaits workers who may find out they no longer have a job once the scheme ends.
The government is proposing a mechanism as part of easing the lockdown whereby millions of people in the UK population will be asked to download a track and trace app in order to limit the spread of coronavirus. The aim of the app is to track anyone who has been in contact with infected persons and/or anyone who has the virus so the app can notify others.
As Care Homes continues to be at the center of the virus outbreak, it has been revealed that two residents have died at Home Farm care home on the Isle of Skye. It is understood that 27 staff of the home have been confirmed to have the virus while 30 residents of the home are also infected. This put the home in a very vulnerable position. An investigation has been called into the scale of the outbreak. It is not clear what preventive measures were in place or if there were any at all, but the number of infected persons involved in the home is a scandal and worrisome. As the trend of discharging patients from hospitals to care homes in order to free beds for new patients without testing them for the virus continues, it appears care homes will continue to be bashed by this virus for some time to come.
