CORONAVIRUS DETECTING CCTV CAMERAS COMING TO SALFORD?
 

Star date: 4th March 2020

SMART CCTV CAN DETECT VIRUS

Nope, it's not April Fool's Day. A company is looking to install smart CCTV cameras with built in temperature sensors in workplaces. The smart camera relays data back to the building's security personnel to help isolate those with higher than normal temperature – a key sign of Coronavirus.

"Automating the detection process...is the best form of defence to protect against large offices being shut down completely" says Jonathan Ratcliffe from Offices.co.uk, which is pushing the technology.

A company is looking to install smart CCTV cameras into buildings to detect and isolate carriers of the Coronavirus, in a 1984 scenario that is growing daily.

The CCTV camera has a built-in temperature sensor which relays data back to the building's security personnel to help isolate those with higher than normal temperature – a key sign of the virus.

The company, Offices.co.uk, states that security personnel would be trained to use Smart Coronavirus CCTV to detect, divert and isolate those people they fear may be carrying the virus.

"Building managers are facing a nightmare with Coronavirus" says Jonathan Ratcliffe from Offices.co.uk "One person could potentially infect hundreds meaning the building would have to close for weeks – there is going to be big money being thrown at this issue..."

The Smart Coronavirus CCTV Cameras can be installed in a building reception or entrance area where detection software would be used to record a person's body temperature, and can handle two people walking at the same time. Data is then relayed to a central computer or shown on a screen, and security or health personnel can then isolate that person for further tests before they enter the main building area.

"Automating the detection process...is the best form of defence to protect against large offices being shut down completely" says Jonathan Ratcliffe.

If this thing is as catchy as they say it is,then were all gonna get it anyway, we cannot avoid it,slow it down a bit perhaps. As for all this hand washing with expensive hand wash things that are being stockpiled, whats wrong with good old fashioned antiseptic carbolic soap? My old gran used to swear by it, her house used to stink of it. She was whats called a "handywoman", a midwives mate in the olden days. The handywomen also used to bung up the dead as well for the undertakers. What we all got to do with this illness is to look out for the old and infirm and see what we can do to help out.

These CCTV have got to be put in IMMEDIATELY, this week, no point in the summer when a quarter of the UK has this coronavirus. It's spreading everywhere all over the world.

That would be classed as special category data under GDPR (health data) and therefore illegal to use without explicit consent from the individuals so would almost certainly be illegal in most cases.

SALFORD STAR – 15 YEARS OF ATTITUDE AND LOVE XXX

The Salford Star closes tonight after 15 years of giving the community a voice, holding power to account and bigging up all the great things that have happened in the city.

Thousands of people in Salford have been involved in one way or another with the Star and we'd like to thank them all. Salford is a very special city and, hopefully, we've given it a very special community publication.

SALFORD STAR CLOSURE – GUY GRIFFITHS ON THE HUMAN COST OF PATHFINDER DEMOLITIONS

Star date: 16th May 2021

THE HUMAN COST OF REGENERATION

The Griffiths brothers of Higher Broughton are kind of infamous as the only people to be forcefully evicted from their house as part of the Pathfinder 'housing market renewal' project during the first decade of the 21st Century.

Here, Guy Griffiths, now living in 'sunny' north Wales and one of the main inspirations for the Salford Star's creation, writes the second part his own personal view of the Government project that devastated communities throughout Central Salford.
