"The “new abnormal” is to believe that it is entirely reasonable for healthcare workers to go to work with the expectation that they will eventually contract a life-threatening illness. Almost everyone, from the public to the healthcare workers themselves, believes this. And why not? The self-serving organism of the NHS, with the connivance of the government, has engineered this torrent of individual sacrifice, ostensibly for the collective good.
As long as the implication is generally accepted that healthcare workers have an unequivocal moral obligation to treat patients, irrespective of any risk to themselves, then governments are conveniently released from the obligation to provide a safe workplace. In law, however, employees are not compelled to work in an unsafe workplace. Neither are they ethically obliged to do so. [15-17] That they widely believe they are, is another success for the year-long gaslighting campaign against healthcare workers."
