Claim struck out because claimant plainly and obviously failed to discharge the evidential burden to prove on the balance of probabilities that his COVID‑19 infection arose out of and in the course of his employment; absence of contemporaneous reporting, lack of medical or environmental evidence linking infection to workplace, contradictory documentary record and alternative explanations rendered the claim incapable of success under O.18 r.19.
