NHS bosses spark fury for reviving draconian Covid curbs and banning patients from having visitors
NHS bosses have sparked fury for reviving draconian Covid curbs by banning patients from having visitors.
Senior Tory MP Alicia Kearns branded Northampton and Kettering Hospitals “wrong and cruel” for stopping friends and family seeing their sick loved ones.

Hospitals say the measures aim to reduce infections following a spike in Covid and seasonal flu cases[/caption]
From yesterday the Trust has suspended visits to all adult inpatient wards except for “compassionate” cases. All visitors must also now wear a mask.
The hospitals say the measures aim to reduce infections following a spike in Covid and seasonal flu cases.
They warn 120 beds are now occupied by coronavirus patients, up from as few as 16 in September. Meanwhile 70 beds are taken up by flu cases.
But Ms Kearns fumed: “This is very wrong and cruel. Patients should not be locked away from their loved ones who advocate for their care, understand their needs and recognise signs that more support might be needed.
“We must learn from mistakes, not repeat them.”
During the pandemic hospitals stopped the overwhelming majority of visits in a controversial approach to limiting transmission.
It meant some were even prevented from seeing dying relatives in their final hours, except over Zoom.
Northampton General Hospitals insist maternity, paediatrics and patients who need compassionate visiting will not be affected and will continue with their current policies.”
Northampton and Kettering General Hospital’s Chief Operating Officers, Palmer Winstanley and Fay Gordon, said: “We would once again like to ask for their support with these restrictions.
“It is not a decision we take lightly, and we hope people understand why we are reintroducing these measures for the safety of our patients.”

Armored Core 6 is all about customising your mech and fighting bosses
A recent interview with Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki and Sekiro lead designer Masaru Yamamura has given us our first details on Armored Core 6.
One of the biggest reveals at The Game Awards last week was that FromSoftware is finally making a new Armored Core, officially called Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon (presumably unrelated to the fruit juice drink). In classic FromSoft fashion, the reveal trailer was just a mysterious cinematic that didn’t really tell us all that much. Thankfully, a recent interview between Miyazaki, Yamamura, and IGN has given us our first details on what we can expect from this sequel.
While Miyazaki did do a bit of directing on the project, he was only there at the beginning, Yamamura took over and is the main director on the game. Of course one of the biggest questions on everyone’s mind is whether Armored Core 6 would be like the Soulsborne games, and Miyazaki quickly put any notion of that to bed. “No, we’ve not been making a conscious effort to try to direct it towards more Soulsborne type gameplay. First of all, let me just make that clear,” Miyazaki explained.
