Hammers fan in “get back to work” outburst

With the vast majority of ClaretandHugh forum members calling for the Premier League to halt their efforts to restart the season, it was interesting to receive a comment from a guy simply calling himself Jeff earlier today.

Jeff claims to be a nurse in New York City and has an entirely different view to the majority. Unsurprisingly came in for some pretty fierce criticism for his views but in the interests of balance we publish them without most definitely don’t share them.

Here’s what Jeff has to say however.

As a nurse in NYC, a West Ham supporter for 50 years and on the front lines let me tell you and all your readers this whole coronavirus thing is overblown.. People die!!

People die of lots of things, when thousands were dying of the flu, of malaria, in car crashes, of cancer of EVERYTHING.

WHERES the news every night, the headlines the panic,the hysteria? 97% of people get sick with COVID and recover!!!

This is 100% BS!! Everyone should grow some balls and get back to work etc!!! I’m dealing with COVID patients in the epicenter every day for 6 weeks and I’m fine!!! It’s pathetic.
