Then what the bloody hell is he doing blocking a bed, then? Stay at home, take a couple of Paracetamol every 4 hours and stop being such a puff.

If he was told to hospitalize and he had said "I am a minister I want to self-isolate at home" you would probably have had something to comment as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would: 'That's a better idea than occupying hospital beds for no reason'. Treatment can be nothing but observation and a couple of Paracetamol.
