Four men have been banned from every hospital in England after sharing videos from inside NHS corridors at the height of the pandemic.

The group were sharing videos online claiming the Covid-19 pandemic had been overstated, reports the Kidderminster Shuttle.

A criminal investigation was launched after videos appeared online which were filmed inside the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham and the Alexandra Hospital in Redditch.
Other nearby hospitals were featured before the footage was deleted.

The four men – a 27-year-old, a 31-year-old and two other men aged 34 - were arrested on January 12 this year on suspicion of causing a public nuisance.

The individuals will only be allowed to visit hospital for medical reasons in future under the terms of their community protection notices.

 
They will still be treated at a hospital though as and when they need to be. It just means that they supposedly can't visit patients etc although who on earth is going to police that is anyone's guess. Well actually it can't possibly be policed so it would only mean anything if they did something stupid again to draw attention to themselves. Total and utter waste of a judgement... sounds good and makes a great headline but useless in reality.

It's a bit symbolic, I guess. But if the men wanted to do similar stunts in the future it'll presumably deter them a bit (or make any penalties more severe) and there's a chance it'll deter other people from doing similar things.

Treated for anything but Covid-19, since they don't believe it exists 🙂 (That's if I was in charge! 😱 )
