You obviously did not watch all of it, at the 3.00 minute mark when Piers asks her again is it true that 4000 people have died in care homes she sneers and laughs openly, setting him of on a rant demanding to know what she is laughing at, at which point after being filmed doing so she simple says "I am not laughing" ad then goes on to make a pigs breakfast of the rest of the interview.

@LenHazell53 I did not watch all of it. At what minute exactly?

@Flowerwall I marked the time point in the comment above after editing

Edit sorry it is closer to 2.47

@Flowerwall The daily mail article I linked has a cut down version showing exactly what happened

@LenHazell53 I didn't watch the whole interview but did read the article. I don't like the interviewer's behavior. Asking questions and then not allowing her to answer. Expecting her to see something she has no way of viewing, and then attacking when she responds with laughter. Let her talk! I am not familiar with issue, but quickly searched something up after watching yesterday and saw something that gave even higher numbers than the 4,000. Almost double. This is very disturbing. I can understand Piers feeling infuriated. It's best to have dialogue. Just cutting her off as she attempts to speak isn't allowing the truth- or what her version of the response has been, to come to light.

I just read this "Public Health England said there were 3,084 care homes with Covid-19 outbreaks in England, as of 15 April." And all I can think is WHAT?! We don't have that many nursing homes infected in the US and we have much higher overall numbers! How did this happen? It definitely needs to be looked into. It seems some basic safety standards are not being followed.

@Flowerwall Basic safety standards are not being able to be followed. The Uk government has denied even basic PPE to care homes, and when hey buy it privately have taxed them on it, saying they can claim back the VAT AT THE END OF THE TAX YEAR, instead of simply scrapping it.
The way the UK government has handled the purchase and distribution of essential medical supplies in this crisis is so shameful, inefficient and ineffective that one could almost believe they are hoping a lot of senior citizen simply die off, I do not think that is the case, it is too horrific to contemplate, but when the minister in charge of this very thing, laughs for any reason, when confronted with such facts, on a public television broadcast I frankly think Piers Morgan showed greater than normal restraint, she is an utter disgrace, especially when her own family are all medial professionals.

@LenHazell53 I agree her mood does come across as inappropriate to the subject. It is an extremely upsetting reality that is being discussed. I understand people want answers and accountability from those in charge. It is reasonable to expect it.

If the government is truly denying basic PPE to care homes the subject needs to be pushed and all in charge need to be held accountable. I just heard of someone today I know who was working in a nursing home and contracted the virus. I don't know what the status was with PPE availability. I know nationally there is shortage everywhere here. You have not been able to purchase masks in store for months, going back to before there were even active cases in the US.
